Where do you get your "most" from? Mirrored mode makes sense if you give a presentation on your laptop, besides that i can not think of a single usecase. Since when is it not a bug when it works on some maschines?
I would expect it to work to extend the display and have every display at max resolution and i would expect it to be configureable without chaning xml files manually. Otherwise the first screen you see when you boot up ubuntu looks garbage and ppl think "iih ubuntu can not even handle my two monitors properly, windows can do it, macos can do it" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity-greeter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1082952 Title: Lightdm does not display correct resolution in multimonitor setup Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When a second Monitor is connected, lightdm displays wrong resolution (the one from the smaller) on the primary monitor. I have one display with 1900x1200 and a secondary monitor with 1280x1024. When lightdm starts it gets displayed on both monitors with 1280x1024 which looks terrible on the primary instead of using the native resolution on both or only displaying on the primary.
