[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1292398] Re: Second screen position isn't saved from one session to another
I have the same/similar issue with Ubuntu 15.10, Unity, NVidia GTX 970, NVidia-352 prop driver. My main display (the left one) is 1920x1080 plugged in via HDMI, and my second monitor is 1280x1024 via DVI. I setup my big monitor to be the left one, and my smaller to be the right one via Unity display settings. On system boot, boot screen and information is only shown on my smaller right monitor, left monitor doesn't even get a signal. On login screen, login credentials are only shown on the smaller right screen, with an expanded wallpaper showing on the left. After login, the left monitor is set correctly to the left, but full screen applications like most of my games start on the smaller right monitor by default. I can fix this after every login via NVidia Xserver Settings app and marking my left monitor as primary, then every game starts correctly on my left monitor. I worked around this now with a startup script setting the primary monitor to the left one via xrandr command. Can't understand why this issue is still low, as it is a very annoying usability bug. Hope this get's fixed in 16.04 LTS! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon 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: Unknown Status in gnome-shell: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu GNOME: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu GNOME Flashback: New Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Triaged 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.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 218637] Re: Non-breaking space is easy to write accidentally and impossible to distinguish from regular space.
I make the mistake regularly of writing a non-breaking space instead of a regular space, when writing shell scripts. It produces errors that are very difficult to detect. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218637 Title: Non-breaking space is easy to write accidentally and impossible to distinguish from regular space. Status in Geany: New Status in gedit: New Status in GNOME Terminal: New Status in nano: New Status in xfce4-terminal: New Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: OS: from Hardy to at least Trusty. When you use Finnish keyboard, you have to hold Alt Gr down to type | or \ or certain other characters. When typing a shell command, you may often want to enter a space character after such characters. But it easily happens that Alt Gr is still down when you press space, and consequently you type non-breaking space character U+00A0 (at least, if you use UTF-8 keyboard layout, which is default in Ubuntu). $cd /tmp ; echo 0 > foo\ bar ; ls "foo bar" ls: cannot access foo bar: No such file or directory $cat foo bar | grep 0 No command ' grep' found, but there are 16 similar ones grep: command not found Besides it may be hard to see the typing error, as non-breaking space character looks exactly same as regular space character. A way to avoid such typos would be to use another keyboard shortcut for non-breaking space. Besides non-breaking space should look different than regular space in terminal emulators and in editors. A workaround in to run setxkbmap -option "nbsp:none" to make type regular space character, and use `printf '\u00a0'` or `printf "\xc2\xa0"` to have a non-breaking space in scripts and in command line. Non-breaking space can be typed (in GTK apps) by u 00a0, if needed, but it looks exactly like a regular space. For me, would be a good shortcut for non-breaking space.

I thought I have the same bug after upgrading to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, but looks like the terminal link has just been updated to point to Konsole.
