Bug Description

When I switch to console & back to X using Ctrl+Alt+F1/Ctrl+Alt+F7, X crashes and returns me to the login screen.

I believe this has something to do with TwinView, as this wasn't happening before when I was using Xinerama on the same drivers.

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 beta 1 with the latest updates, and the 195.36.15 NVIDIA drivers.

I am currently using 2 GPUs and 3 displays: Two monitors using TwinView on GPU0, and one monitor using a separate X screen on GPU1.
