Public bug reported: I have two monitors connected to my Dell XPS 13 via the USB-C output. For the majority of the time, it works fine. Occasionally, one or both of the images on the displays jump to the right, so that the right few inches appear on the left. To rectify the problem, I run the

This is the xdpyinfo output with the monitors running in 'mirror' mode after booting the laptop docked with monitors attached. (I attach this because I imagine the one obtained by the bug tool was probably not the same) ** Attachment added: "xdpyinfo.txt with monitors attached."
