Same behavior as described in #66.
Besides I could not set primary display via the Monitor Preferences. I tried to
order the monitors in every way but unity dock is staying on the the laptop lcd.
In some configuration the external monitor is having corrupted screen - color
is invalid or monitor show a message resolution is not supported but the
resolution and refresh rate are set properly
And even if my laptop lcd - LVDS1 - is closed - during startup or
closing later - X is always starting on the internal lcd. I see that
xrandr can see LVSD1 as connected even if the display is closed.
With xrand commands the config can be correct.
I can execute the following in my case and then everything is fine:
#########################################################
#!/bin/bash
off=$(xrandr|grep "\ connected"|grep LVDS1|head -1|awk '{print $1}')
output=$(xrandr|grep "\ connected"|grep -v LVDS1|head -1|awk '{print $1}')
if [ -n "$output" ]
then
xrandr --output $output --primary
if [ -n "$off" ]
then
xrandr --output $off --off
fi
fi
