Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1721637] Re: can't open system settings(Ubuntu 17.10), icon is visible but settings don't dislay
Hi! To disable the phantom monitor, hit the super key (the one with the Windows logo on it), the type Display. The app that handles the displays will be shown, click on it. Once there, you're see two monitors, the real one to the left and the phantom one to the right. Click on it and disable it choosing the appropriate control (I don't have Ubuntu installed anymore, so I'm telling you this by memory). It should be labeled "Activate", "Enabled" or something similar. Hope this helps!

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1721637] Re: can't open system settings(Ubuntu 17.10), icon is visible but settings don't dislay
I don't know if it's related or not to the problem, but here it goes. I'm using Ubuntu 17.10 on a laptop that has a Nvidia 540M GPU and also an onboard Intel GPU. It seems Ubuntu is assigning a monitor for each (there's an unknown second monitor on my setup and I have no idea where it came from). In the end, my solution was disabling that unknown monitor. That made the "virtual screen" I was referring to before disappear and the system settings app to work again. But, oddly, it only began malfunctioning after I moved the dock to the bottom position. -- 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/1721637 Title: can't open system settings(Ubuntu 17.10), icon is visible but settings don't dislay Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When i click on system settings, icon is displaying but settings window doesn't visible.

Ok, a little workaround did restore the System Settings for me (assuming one had this problem after changing the dock position just like me): - sudo apt install dconf-editor - Navigate to org>gnome>shell-extensions>dash-to-dock>dock-position - Restore dock position to it's default value System Settings is working properly now. However, my mouse cursor still disappears if I move it to the screen edge to the right. -- 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/1721637 Title: can't open system settings(Ubuntu 17.10), icon is visible but settings don't dislay Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When i click on system settings, icon is displaying but settings window doesn't visible.

I believe I know what's happening: it looks like Ubuntu created a virtual screen. If I put my mouse pointer to the right, it vanishes the same way it does when there's a second monitor/screen attached to the system. Don't know how it happened, though, since I haven't changed my screen resolution or displays. -- 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/1721637 Title: can't open system settings(Ubuntu 17.10), icon is visible but settings don't dislay Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When i click on system settings, icon is displaying but settings window doesn't visible.

I'm having the same problem. Started soon after I changed the dock position from left to bottom. Have already tried to reinstall gnome- control-center, but to no avail.
