Sorry, typo in my previous comment: * Make sure that all of the displays you want to use are active using xrandr. * Delete xorg.conf if it exists. * Edit ~/.config/monitors.xml **by hand** to achieve the display geometry you want. After this, don't bother with nvidia-settings, arandr, or the "Displays" dialog. * Run dbus-send --session --print-reply --dest=org.gnome.SettingsDaemon /org/gnome/SettingsDaemon/XRANDR org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.XRANDR_2.ApplyConfiguration int64:0 int64:0 to load the new monitor settings. * Run the "Background" dialog and change the background image to a solid color.
