[Bug 2110949] Re: Loss of monitor config upon reboot
Hi Daniel, Sorry for the confusion: by "dock" I was not referring to one of those USB-C docks -- just a physical stand which holds the laptop upright in when in clamshell mode, so bug 2109692 probably doesn't apply here. I tried: sudo cp ~/.config/monitors.xml ~gdm/.config/monitors.xml sudo reboot On reboot, I now noticed part of the "HP" logo in the corner of the primary&secondary monitors. Then I see the gray login screen correctly attached to the primary monitor at the correct scale. Thank you for this! However, there are still some issues: - after logging in, the monitor stops receiving USB-C input, and even when I open the laptop to look at the primary screen, it is black with no way to wake it up. - the fix has been to: 1. unplug from usbc, (possibly unnecessary) 2. force shut down the laptop from the power key, 3. and login on the laptop monitor 4. once the laptop display is outputting, connect the usb-c back to connect the external monitors 5. wait for the output to switch to the correct configuration 6. close the laptop into clamshell mode. This is the heart of the bug I have been experiencing, but if you would like I can open it as a separate issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2110949 Title: Loss of monitor config upon reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2110949/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 2110949] Re: Loss of monitor config upon reboot
Hi Daniel, Apologies, I used the term "dock" but I wasn't meaning one of those powered-USB-C docks, just a stand that holds it upright in clamshell mode, so likely not bug 2109692. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2110949 Title: Loss of monitor config upon reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2110949/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The login screen issue is bug 1760849. The login screen runs as a different user (gdm) so it has its own monitor configuration. You can overwrite that as root by copying ~/.config/monitors.xml to ~gdm/.config/monitors.xml It's important each bug only describes one issue, so this can be about the problem after login. I think the dock is the most important factor here and it sounds like bug 2109692. ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2110949 Title: Loss of monitor config upon reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2110949/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Please try without a dock and tell us if the problem persists after logging in. ** Changed in: linux (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/2110949 Title: Loss of monitor config upon reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2110949/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
