For a long time, I've had the following show up every time I launch a GUI application from the terminal:

Xlib:  extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0".

I've had this forever and I've also had some odd edge issues forever (Unity not working particularly well, for instance) so I'm wondering if it's indicative of a greater issue with my setup. What might cause this, and at the very least, how might I suppress it?

I'm running 11.10 and this is what lspci says about my video card:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G98 [GeForce 8400 GS] (rev a1)

  • Twinview, as far as I can tell, just doubles the display, which doesn't really do what I want :(
