After the latest updates with the new Gnome Settings I can change the setup for external monitors.
The problem is that the system doesn't remember the settings, so after a log out (or restart or suspension, etc..) I need always to open again Gnome Settings and set the external monitor as "Single Display". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1714410 Title: Can't change display configuration, Method ApplyConfiguration is not implemented on interface org.gnome.Mutter.DisplayConfig Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Since last night's updates, I can no longer change screen resolution or monitor alignment in gnome-control-center anymore (in gnome-shell running under Wayland). gnome-control-center fails silently in the GUI but reports this from the command line: (gnome-control-center:5887): display-cc-panel-WARNING **: Error applying configuration: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Method ApplyConfiguration is not implemented on interface org.gnome.Mutter.DisplayConfig All the available display modes are listed in gnome-control-center (you just can't select them).
