Comment 19 for bug 561538

Hi Erik,

I ssh'd to my Lucid system from a laptop running Jaunty and started with:

chavez@samurai:~$ export DISPLAY=:0
chavez@samurai:~$ sudo xrandr
[sudo] password for chavez:
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 240, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1280 x 1024
default connected 1280x1024+0+0 0mm x 0mm
   1280x1024 50.0*
   1280x960 51.0
   1152x864 52.0
   1024x768 53.0

   800x512 60.0
   720x450 61.0
   680x384 62.0 63.0
   640x512 64.0
   640x480 65.0 66.0

   512x384 68.0
   400x300 69.0
   320x240 70.0
chavez@samurai:~$

At this point I then switched users and then logged out to get the blank screen. However, for me the following command does not return

chavez@samurai:~$ sudo xrandr --output default --gamma 1:1:1

though I can CTRL-C and kill it but a sudo xrandr with no arguments again as before I logged out also doesn't return unless I CTRL-C it.

The only log that shows any new entries is dmesg with the following:

[ 167.224029] NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 8, Channel 00000000

[ 191.226777] NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000000 Count 00004111

So, I wonder if my problem is either with the nVidia 173 accelerated driver or my nVidia GeForce FX 5200 card?
