rs who can use nvlcock? Should it be posted into ubuntuforums.org - calling all vaio owners thread ?
There is only one bug which seems to be linked to nvlclock - if using nvlcock a couple of times (diming from 100% to 15% and back) it splits the display output in the midd le - but only the output is splited - you still have to click in the left corner if you want to be there - >
a screenshot give the normal results - so I think it's a mistake in the nvidia part.
