[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1721637] Re: can't open system settings(Ubuntu 17.10), icon is visible but settings don't dislay
I installed Ubuntu 17.10.1 today on my laptop, and got the same problem. Opened settings and moved the dock to the bottom, and the settings window just disappeared. The answer given in the following link helped me to disable the second virtual monitor from the command line, and restored the settings window back to my normal laptop screen view: Link: https://askubuntu.com/questions/366813/disable-second-non- existent-screen-from-command-line Of course, this second monitor may come up again when you restart your machine, so it would be a good option to follow the latter part of the answer in above link, and put the command in a script which you can schedule to run at startup. This is a workaround though, and this not the proper fix, which hopefully may come in a future update/patch. -- 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: Incomplete Bug description: When i click on system settings, icon is displaying but settings window doesn't visible.

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!

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.
