Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg

The proprietary nVidia driver seems to be treating the two 1920x1200 monitors as one 3840x1200 monitor. This resolution is then not supported by the X Server, causing the error message on login:

'Could not apply the stored configuration for monitors
X Server does not support size requested'

However, the display still works as expected.

[Original]
Since upgrading to Lucid, I am getting the following dialog warning on login:

'Could not apply the stored configuration for monitors
X Server does not support size requested'
