[Desktop-packages] [Bug 924759] Re: Unity Greeter to support logging in on any display in a multi-monitor setup
With latest version (0.2.6-0ubuntu1) there are several shortcommings. Configuration is the following: - front monitor DELL 16:9 1680x1050 hard-coded to Primary in xorg.conf - left monitor is DELL 4:3 1280x1024 rotated counterclockwise (property set in xorg.conf) - Intel core i5 clarkdale integrated chipset, fully accelerated (compiz/unity/webgl etc... run flawlessly) Problems: - although intially my mouse cursor is centered on the primary monitor, the greeter defaults to the left one. moving the cursor fixes the problem (the login dialog jumps on the correct monitor) but: - even though my machine as decent specs (core i5 4 core, 4GB ram, graphic card described above) the switch of the login dialog is *very* slow and laggy. With the previous issue, the following happens: (1) cursor and login window are on different screen. so I move my mouse left to give focus to the correct screen (2) dialog starts to be redrawn (i guess) on the right screen but the process is very slow. (3) cursor arrives on the left screen. I start going to the keyboard to log in. (4) dialog jumps to the right screen, loosing focus, while mouse is still is on left screen. (5) step 1 to 4 are repeated until I can catch-up with the login screen (by moving fast enough or waiting long enough for the dialog to jump back and forth which it does not always do) -- 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/924759 Title: Unity Greeter to support logging in on any display in a multi-monitor setup Status in Ayatana Design: Triaged Status in Unity: Confirmed Status in Unity Greeter: Fix Released Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: For a multi-monitor setup, the Greeter should be shown on the Primary display (at it's native/last-used resolution) on startup.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 924759] Re: Unity Greeter to support logging in on any display in a multi-monitor setup
Multi-monitor support was added in unity-greeter 0.2.2, however it uses whatever layout gnome-settings-daemon provides by default. With a monitor already plugged in this is mirror (it's the same in a Unity session) and span if a monitor is plugged in after boot. The correct behaviour should probably be to match the Unity session, so for the default to be span gnome-settings-daemon probably needs the defaults changed. ** Changed in: unity-greeter Status: Triaged = Fix Committed ** Changed in: unity-greeter Status: Fix Committed = Fix Released ** Changed in: unity-greeter (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Fix Released ** Also affects: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- 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/924759 Title: Unity Greeter to support logging in on any display in a multi-monitor setup Status in Ayatana Design: Triaged Status in Unity: Confirmed Status in Unity Greeter: Fix Released Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: For a multi-monitor setup, the Greeter should be shown on the Primary display (at it's native/last-used resolution) on startup.
