Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nvidia-settings
I have a Dell laptop with an external monitor. I have made a clean 9.10 beta install that has been updated to RC 1) Using Separate X screen configuration, when I set the laptop monitor to be 'right of' and the external monitor to be 'absolute', save to xorg.conf, and log in and out again, this setting does not take effect. When I check the display configuration again, it is the laptop monitor that is 'absolute' and the external monitor is now 'right of' - the opposite of what I tried to configure. 2) Furthermore, the 'left of' and 'right of' setting do not matter anyway, because the two screens are independent. In 9.04 only one screen (the 'main monitor') would have the menu bar and I could move windows between the two monitors as if they were one big monitor. Now I can't do that, and also the option to select 'main monitor' is gone.
