$ps -ef shows, in part:
root 178 2 0 09:06 ? 00:00:00 [nouveau/0]
root 179 2 0 09:06 ? 00:00:00 [nouveau/1]
Is this normal? I don't recall ever having two.
I recently replaced my LG Flatron L1960TR-BF (4:3 ratio) with an Asus VN242 (16:9). Could this be the cause of the two nouveau's? I'm not running a dual monitor set up. And never have.
The switch over went fine with only a minor glitch with the panels. No other problems, then or now.
In any case, can (or should) I remove one--and which one--and how best to do that?
Fedora 12-64-bit. Basically stock. GNOME. EVGA GeForce 8400GS graphics card. 3D not enabled. Fully updated at the time.
Thanks.
