@Bryce: I get an error about no protocol specified / cannot connect to DISPLAY=:0 when trying to xrandr --auto from a console or from an ssh session.
Some more info on the garbling though: - if I set external (1920x1200) monitor to mirror the laptop (1920x1080) screen, I see the same garbling effect within a session. - using fglrx I can have 1920x1080 mirrored onto the external screen fine. so actually probably is not lightdm specific, but something with the ati drivers in oneiric (I've been able to mirror in natty/earlier). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/813566 Title: Greeter not displayed correctly on multi monitor setup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/813566/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
