Sorry for multiple posting (no way of editing ?): New observation:
Now that I told "Display Preferences" that my external monitor is to the right side of my laptop it has worked (though physically it still is to its left). BUT - the display is still a bit whacky and fickle, that is to say, the panels (both top and below Firefox, whatever their proper name), are mostly stripy orange with the occasional icon / button visible when I hover over it. So basically this "works", but obviously far from perfectly. Any suggestions? Thanks!! tp. -- "Display Properties" sets virtual resolution too low https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/433856 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
