Multi display issue with Ubuntu GNOME 14.04

rated 0 times [ 32] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 49963 / 1 Year ago, mon, january 23, 2023, 3:19:10

Fresh install of Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 with 3 displays (fglrx driver).
I can correct the screens order in System Settings / Display but it is not saved when I close the session and reopen it.

Screens order in GDM is also wrong. Copy/pasting the .config/monitors.xml file into /var/lib/gdm/.config/ doesn't change anything.

Does anybody have an idea ?

I have the same issue

seems like gnome-settings-daemon is not loading monitors.xml at startup

my work around is to run this command

pkill -9 -f gnome-settings-daemon

as a "Startup Application"

i have documented this in my ubuntu 14.04 update and problems post

not sure if there is a better solution
