Bug Description

Binary package hint: nvidia-settings

First, nvidia-settings has made huge strides, so congrats. But, there are quirks, including:

3 button mouse emulation is turned off by default, when I save the xorg.conf file, and I don't see any way to turn it back on through the UI.

Please reopen, or I will refile. This applies to the nvidia-settings application, which is actually installed by nvidia-glx, which IS in the repository. Please actually try to reproduce bugs before marking them invalid in future.

(Oh good, I didn't realize I had permissions to reopen. I did, and I will fix the module too.)

Unfortunately, there's little we can do about it. You should report this to NVIDIA by using the 'nvidia-bug-report.sh' script. The default xorg.conf contains a _lot_ of stuff that is not needed with current xservers.

Uh, reopening. We will drop the nvidia-settings binary from nvidia-glx* in favor of this opensource version. There's a lot of other stuff that needs cleaning up.
