was corrected. Recently the bug returned for me.

Computer: Dell Inspiron Notebook
Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-3632QM CPU @ 2.20GHz × 8
Graphics: Intel® Ivybridge Mobile
Driver: X.Org X

1)log in
2)use xrandr or the Displays control utility to configure your monitors
how you'd like them to be configured in the login screen
3)copy ~/.config/monitors.xml
It still presents at 14.04. The login screen when you input the password
is fine. But after that, you hit enter to login, and you see on the
larger monitor, a mess of graphics is shown. It is a minor aesthetic
issue that you see every day, accumulating to a bad impression.

I think this is fixed in Ubuntu 13.10. For me both screens are set to

I also agree that the default resolution at the login screen is ugly.
Low resolution mirroring is bad. Windows 7 is using only the external
screen at its highest resolution at the login screen.
Also the guest session in Ubuntu uses the same ugly low resolution
mirroring by default so the whole exp

Yeah I happened to notice the exact same thing today. I have REALLY
unstable sessions when having dual monitors plugged in. Either I
randomly loose dual monitor setup
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/921540) as well as sometimes having my
desktop crash when connecting the screen in a live desktop
An interesting thing is that if I unplug the monitor during the greeter
and plug it back in it shows fine - with the Ubuntu logo. Maybe just
forcing lightDM to rescan the monitors somehow would work.

The way the login display manager should look is now defined in the
Design team multimonitor specification. Rather than mirroring (which
causes this bug) lightdm needs to set the screens to extended, with the
primary screen showing the login and the secondary showing a logo.
It probably makes sen
ahem.
It seems to be working ok for me, but I'll keep an eye out for it.

I don't know why the display utility is not saving the settings for you.
It looks like your ~/.config/monitors.xml is set properly; gnome-
settings-daemon ought to load that and apply it automatically when you
log in (it won't affect the greeter though). Anyway, that's probably a
gnome-settings-da
So, what's going on here is that the display manager is setting the
displays to mirrored. In X, 'mirror' means 'find a common resolution
supported by both monitors'. Unfortunately, in cases where the aspect
ratio of the two displays differ, there will be zero XxY resolutions
they have in common,
