Public bug reported:
this is a duplicate report... (or i've filed it before but possibly
mixed with other issues that don't apply on this AMD gpu)
Ubuntu-MATE impish daily.
** Background
Monitors are landscape + portrait-left, so live boots with one display
readable & other somewhat problematic to read.. Worse on this box the
monitors are left-right swapped.
First thing is load Display settings so I can set Monitor Preferences to
match setup.. Alas I make a few mistakes & now after a number of tries;
I cannot tell which is the real monitor and which isn't
** Expectation
The Monitor Preferences shows two displays; 1 green & 1 red representing each
display..
(no trails, but definitely no choice multiple red/green desktops(
** Actual results
Currently I have 3 red displays on the box that are complete; plus 20+
partial-red trails from prior movements. I also have 2+ complete green
displays & 1 partial green display and maybe 5 partial green trails from
movements.
Because of the portrait tilt (portrait-left in MATE & Lubuntu, but it's
portrait-RIGHT in Ubuntu which I QA-tested yesterday) I took a number of goes
to get it right, each time the screens go black & redraw where I accept or
restore settings... I lost track of which GREEN & RED was real during my
various attempts.. it's made me a little whoozy which isn't good, but the
red/green trails & multiple images do NOT make it easy.
This is the 3rd box today I've experienced this today; 2x nvidia & this
amd thingy. It's a larger problem on this box because of the portrait
tilt (that's not always portrait-left as is dependent on desktop being
used & my testing multiple desktops)
