[Peter Suetterlin <P.Suetterlin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

  Hello list,

Today I connected a monitor to the external outlet of my laptop.  To get a
signal out, I had to use nvidia-settings, which worked fine.

After some test, I deactivated it again.

However, now I'm no longer able to use xrandr to switch my display resolution!
Trying to do so only results in a message
  Failed to change the screen configuration!
This especially nasty as now e.g. games are no longer able to go 'real'
fullscreen - 640x400 doesn't look impressive centered on a 1680x1050 screen :-(

Is this (i.e., using both nvidia-settings and xrandr) supposed to work (how?),
or how do other nvidia-settings users handle fullscreen applications?

Thanks for any tips,

  Pit
