Public bug reported:
On a VirtualBox 6.0.14 host, with a fresh install of Ubuntu 19.10 and
the virtualbox guest drivers installed, I can't configure a second
display, although xrandr shows it to be present.
Steps:
1. Install VirtualBox
2. Install Ubuntu 19.10 as a guest with 2 displays (note: at least 2048 MB RAM
is required or the guest is chronically slow during installation; I gave the
displays 32 MB RAM as well).
3. In the guest, install virtualbox guest drivers and reboot.
4. Run g-c-c and go to the Devices / Displays section.
Expected result:
I can choose to Join the displays, move them around with the mouse and
Apply the new settings successfuly.
Actual result:
Display 2 is shown normally but Display 1 is just a number (see
attached) - I can't move it around or Apply changes.
