I found this bug on launchpad from about five years ago and it looks like it hasn't been resolved yet.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/732867 It presents a workaround for applying the settings. I haven't tried it yet, but it would be nice if this could be fixed. Is there someone who could point me in the right direction for this? dbus-send --type="method_call" --print-reply --session --dest=org.gnome.SettingsDaemon /org/gnome/SettingsDaemon/XRANDR org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.XRANDR.ApplyConfiguration On Mon, Mar 28, 2016 at 9:44 AM, Josh Stratton <strattonbra...@gmail.com> wrote: > My machine is a Thinkpad T444s running Ubuntu 14.04.
