Title:
gnome-settings-daemon (3.4.2-0ubuntu0.6.3) breaks nvidia multi-
monitor-config
Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Hello,
I use Kubuntu 12.04.x with lightdm as login-manager to KDE and the
nvidia binary driver with 2 monitors (DVI, TwinView).
My Multi-Monitor config:
right monitor: MAIN monitor
left monitor: second monitor as extension: with mode left of Main Monitor
This config is setup with nvidia-settings, which stores in xorg.conf and in
.nvidia-settings in home-dir.
In KDE the config is also stored with krandr as default config.
After upgrading from package gnome-settings-daemon
(3.4.2-0ubuntu0.6.2) to gnome-settings-daemon (3.4.2-0ubuntu0.6.3),
the xorg.conf settings are ignored/misinterpreted as well as the KDE
krandr settings.
When lightdm is started, the second monitor is on the right side, and when
logging-in to KDE either clone mode on both monitors is started or the second
monitor is on the right side (mirrored).
=> I have to set my desired settings manually again and at the next reboot
the problem persists.
I have downgraded to gnome-settings-daemon-3.4.1-0ubuntu1, and the
problem is gone. All fine again.
I didn't find the previous version 3.4.2-0ubuntu0.6.2. How can I get
this package version?
Faulty package/patch:
gnome-settings-daemon (3.4.2-0ubuntu0.6.3) precise; urgency=low

1065979 external/internal monitors mirrored on boot when
laptop lid is closed
I use this PC at my workplace, so it is important for me to solve this
problem.
Thank you for your help!
Best regards, Bernhard
