Guys, this is just a total shot in the dark and probably won't work, but has anybody tried installing the nvidia-modprobe package? I did this some time ago (I think during 14.10) to fix issues with Darktable. Around the same time, but possibly only later, the second-screen issue disappeared for me. It never occurred to me until now, but there just miiiight be a connection?
I've been using nvidia-modprobe ever since, so I don't know if this has anything to do with it and frankly, I don't think so. But perhaps give it a shot and report back? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1292398 Title: Second screen position isn't saved from one session to another Status in elementary OS: Fix Released Status in gnome-settings-daemon: Unknown Status in gnome-shell: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu GNOME: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu GNOME Flashback: New Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: (Noticed on Ubuntu 14.04 beta 1 GNOME) At work I have a second screen, which I prefer to virtually put on the left side of my laptop screen. Using gnome-control-center I can change the position of the second without problem. But when I disconnect the second screen (to work on another place) and then connect it again OR if I just power off the laptop and turn it on again, the second screen position is set back to the default right position.
