Second monitor not detected anymore(SOLVED)
In dolphin file manager i removed the home icon from the side panel and now my second monitor won't work.I tried reinstalling xorg and my nvidia drivers but have had no luck.Any help with this would be appreciated.Thx
Btw - Most of my user files disappeared from my home directory when i deleted the icon.

Re: Second monitor not detected anymore(SOLVED)
sounds like you deleted a little bit more than just the icon.

Re: Second monitor not detected anymore(SOLVED)
I managed to get it working again but i can't get the resolution higher then 640x480, It should be 1920x1080
edit:
I had to unplug my monitor and reboot.Then i pluged it back in and used gksu/kdesu nvidia-settings and got a resolution of 640x480.After that i just had to reboot again and everything was back to normal.
Also ,the files that were missing from my /home/user/ where easily replaced from the /etc/skel directory and any others that were missing like my .rtorrent.rc just had to be re-downloaded and configured again.
