[Bug 1578243] Re: Screen configuration is not preserved when logging out and logging back in
Just upgraded from 14.04 to 16.04.1 and found this (and the workaround) via googling. I drop my laptop on a dock with two vertically oriented (rotated to portrait) monitors. This was working fine before, now it lights them up without the rotation. Rotating them manually via System Settings -> Displays, undocking and docking again reverts to the wrong (landscape) orientation. The ~/.config/monitors.xml looks fine but seems to be ignored. Reloading the settings with killall unity-settings-daemon gives me the correct orientation, which is read from the monitor.xml (editing the file by hand and killing u-s-d accepts whatever changes I make), it just doesn't get triggered on docking changes. That's the workaround for now: kill u-s-d every time I dock to the workplace. It would be nice for patchlvl 1 LTS upgrades to not break such basic stuff. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1578243 Title: Screen configuration is not preserved when logging out and logging back in To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-settings-daemon/+bug/1578243/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Same problem. >Could you add your ~/.cache/upstart/unity-settings-daemon.log and ~/.config/monitors.xml to the bug? There is no unity-settings-daemon.log for some reason, there are just the compressed ones, so I've attached the .1.gz file. I will attach monitors.xml in a moment. ** Attachment added: "unity-settings-daemon.log.1.gz" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-settings-daemon/+bug/1578243/+attachment/4657305/+files/unity-settings-daemon.log.1.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1578243 Title: Screen configuration is not preserved when logging out and logging back in To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-settings-daemon/+bug/1578243/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for your bug report. You wrote "When I log out and immediately log back in", does it mean it only happens when you log back directly? what if you wait 30 seconds? Could you add your ~/.cache/upstart/unity- settings-daemon.log and ~/.config/monitors.xml to the bug? ** Package changed: unity (Ubuntu) => unity-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: unity-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: unity-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1578243 Title: Screen configuration is not preserved when logging out and logging back in To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-settings-daemon/+bug/1578243/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
