[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1292398] Re: Second screen position isn't saved from one session to another
I prefer to run this script from a terminal since I open one the first thing I do but found a way to fix related to what others have done with a desktop shortcut. I tried a `systemctl service` upon login but it errors on so many items that I gave up. Following the third answer's direction's - login with bad configuration: cd .config mv monitors.xml{,.bak} Now set your monitors with system settings. Copy fixed script with `wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/alextomko/monitors/master/monitors` and put it in a path to run from terminal. cd /home/$USER/bin mkdir /home/$USER/bin wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/alextomko/monitors/master/monitors mv monitors /home/$USER/bin/monitors chmod +x /home/$USER/bin/monitors # Run it monitors -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1292398 Title: Second screen position isn't saved from one session to another Status in elementary OS: Fix Released Status in GNOME Settings Daemon: Incomplete Status in GNOME Shell: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu GNOME: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu GNOME trusty series: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu GNOME xenial series: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu GNOME Flashback: Confirmed Status in Unity: New Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: (Noticed on Ubuntu 14.04 beta 1 GNOME) At work I have a second screen, which I prefer to virtually put on the left side of my laptop screen.

I also confirm this bug with fresh install Ubuntu 16.04. Any-time I leave my PC for 5 minutes, reboot or come back from a locked session my monitors go back not being aligned properly like I have saved them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1292398 Title: Second screen position isn't saved from one session to another Status in elementary OS: Fix Released Status in GNOME Settings Daemon: Incomplete Status in GNOME Shell: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu GNOME: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu GNOME trusty series: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu GNOME xenial series: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu GNOME Flashback: Confirmed Status in Unity: New Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: (Noticed on Ubuntu 14.04 beta 1 GNOME) At work I have a second screen, which I prefer to virtually put on the left side of my laptop screen.
