Public bug reported:
Using gnome-settings-daemon 3.18.2-0ubuntu3.1 on Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
Logging in with a new user account, my two monitors are the wrong way
round. I can fix for this user by right-click; run "Display Settings"
and manually reconfiguring. This creates ~/.config/monitors.xml
I now copy that file to /etc/gnome-settings-daemon/xrandr/monitors.xml -
I expect this to apply to all other users on this PC:
$ gsettings get org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.xrandr
default-configuration-file
'/etc/gnome-settings-daemon/xrandr/monitors.xml'
When other users log in, they still get the incorrect display setup. It
looks like /etc/gnome-settings-daemon/xrandr/monitors.xml is having no
effect.
