Steve, thanks for looking into this with 19.04.  I wasn't expecting that
it would improve things, but I decided that if I was going to pour more
effort into this, U would wait for the next OS release.

Yes, the other post may not be directly relevant to our problem, but
it's still interesting.  I've thought that some underlying change may
have been made to disallow a second session manager to run, so this
might be a clue as to where to look.  I get the same xrandr results as
you.

% xrandr -q
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1600 x 1200, maximum 16384 x 16384
DVI-I-0 connected 1600x1200+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 
432mm x 324mm
   1600x1200     60.00*+
   1280x1024     85.02    75.02    60.02  
   1024x768      85.00    75.03    70.07    60.00  
   800x600       85.06    75.00    72.19    60.32    56.25  
   640x480       85.01    75.00    72.81    59.94  
DVI-I-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP-2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

% xrandr -display :0.1
Screen 1: minimum 8 x 8, current 1600 x 1200, maximum 16384 x 16384
DP-3 connected primary 1600x1200+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 
432mm x 324mm
   1600x1200     60.00*+
   1280x1024     85.02    75.02    60.02  
   1024x768      85.00    75.03    70.07    60.00  
   800x600       85.06    75.00    72.19    60.32    56.25  
   640x480       85.01    75.00    72.81    59.94

Now, can we get developers responsible for different parts of the OS
related to display recognition and the launching of xfce4 to please
coordinate on this problem and track down the source.  It definitely
happened due to a change from 18.04 to 18.10, so diffs between those two
versions is the place to look.
