[ubuntu-studio-users] Netflix on Ubuntu Studio 14.04

[Joseph Ronne]

Thanks .. After the upgrade to 14.04 I was useing the xorg nouveau but
needed to sort out the screens in ARNR after every boot so installed the
Nvidia 304. That seemed to resolve the dual screen prob and still works
nicely for graphics .. let me know if there is a disadvantage .. the
nouveau is still there.
