Apologies: I retract part of my post, to the extent that I've just tried gnome-display-properties again, and this time, it *was* possible to enable both monitors (i.e. giving dual screens). Last time I tried this a week or two ago, enabling the second monitor disabled the first; so I assume the tool was updated since then (presumably by Bryce Harrington -- thanks!).
It still put them the wrong way round, and there being no way to specify which way round they should go graphically, I still had to use the command line tool to specify --left-of. I remain hopeful that despite what Bryce wrote here last month, a simple drop-down menu to specify 'left' or 'right' might be slipped in before Hardy gets released...? -- gnome-display-properties cannot put monitors beside each other, no other tool to do this available to users https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/201593 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
