[Bug 1292398] Re: multi-monitor : second screen position isn't saved from one session to another
I tried the workaround proposed by thw-th. It works, but only for the first login. That means the screen configuration is wrong - on the login screen (gdm) - after locking the screen and unlocking it again With lightdm, the login screen works like a charm but the desktop is affected by the screen config issue right after logging in, when the above workaround is not installed. So, yes, seems like a GNOME issue.

[Bug 1292398] Re: multi-monitor : second screen position isn't saved from one session to another
Because this seems to be a timing issue, I extend the approach of HaraldK. The idea is just start the g-s-d a little bit later. Therefore I create a file /usr/share/upstart/sessions/gnome-settings- daemon.override which overrides the exec statement: script sleep 2 exec /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon end script This works for me on several setups (with SSD and conventional hard disks). Adding a somewhat random delay is not really a satisfying solution. A real Bugfix is still needed! Other test relying on /etc/xdg/autostart/ completely fail, although the autostart is basically working and a g-s-d startup file is installed by default. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1292398 Title: multi-monitor : second screen position isn't saved from one session to another To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/elementaryos/+bug/1292398/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1292398] Re: multi-monitor : second screen position isn't saved from one session to another
@HaraldK Weirdly, I actually mean on the left. I tested different configurations where the origin was not 0,0 (for example moving both monitors by 1 to the right) and the monitors.xml file only takes when the primary display is on the left. For example: APP 0x9cf0 0x 1440 900 60 1920 0 normal no no yes AOC 0x2369 0x073e 1920 1080 60 0 0 normal no no no will not be used but swapping the HDMI1 monitor to be primary (as per previous attachment) will work.

[Bug 1292398] Re: multi-monitor : second screen position isn't saved from one session to another
Now here is something that did help. In effect it is likely much the same as killing gnome-settings-manager, except it is not killed, but just started later: sudo echo manual >/usr/share/upstart/sessions/gnome-settings- daemon.override This prevents the gnome-settings-daemon to be started by the 'init --user' session manager. I thought now the gnome-settings-daemon might be started by one of /usr/share/upstart/xdg/autostart/gnome-settings-daemon.desktop /etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-settings-daemon.desktop but these don't seem to do anything. Therefore I created a ~/.config/autostart/gsd.desktop which starts gnome-settings-daemon. The downside of this approach in contrast to the kill-approach is that the if the daemon falls over, it is not automatically restarted. Obviously it helps to start the daemon rather later than earlier. Looking at the preconditions in /usr/share/upstart/sessions/gnome-settings-daemon.conf, they are start on started dbus and starting gnome-session INSTANCE=GNOME There is probably only one little thing missing here, but I have no background to guess what it might be. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1292398 Title: multi-monitor : second screen position isn't saved from one session to another To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/elementaryos/+bug/1292398/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1292398] Re: multi-monitor : second screen position isn't saved from one session to another
What do you mean "on the left"? Somehow it is hard to believe the actual physical location should be important. But clearly one of the monitors must be listed first in monitors.xml and gets x,y=0,0 assigned, while the other monitor is then relative to this one. So we have three properties a monitor can have: 1) internal laptop or external (or put it: hardware's main monitor and additional monitor) 2) has the gnome panel or not 3) is listed with x,y=0,0 as reference in monitors.xml Makes 8 possibilities.

In case it's useful: I have confirmed the issue on Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 but only when the monitor on the left is not the primary monitor. i.e. I can set my external monitor to be on the left of my laptop's built in screen, but only if I set it as the primary display.

Then in that case, may I suggest a change of policy somewhere? I've just been informed that this weekend our entire corporate entity will move to Mint (MATE) from Ubuntu Gnome, due to this bug. The kicker is that they now won't be going for Landmark next quarter, which is annoying.
