Because this seems to be a timing issue, I extend the approach of HaraldK. The idea is just start the g-s-d a little bit later. Therefore I create a file /usr/share/upstart/sessions/gnome-settings- daemon.override which overrides the exec statement:
script sleep 2 exec /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon end script This works for me on several setups (with SSD and conventional hard disks). Adding a somewhat random delay is not really a satisfying solution. A real Bugfix is still needed! Other test relying on /etc/xdg/autostart/ completely fail, although the autostart is basically working and a g-s-d startup file is installed by default. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1292398 Title: multi-monitor : second screen position isn't saved from one session to another To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/elementaryos/+bug/1292398/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
