However the mouse cursor is initially positioned on the external monitor (I think it is horizontally centered on the virtual screen made up of the two monitors, i.e. (1280+1920) ÷ 2 = 1600), so I would expect the login screen to be displayed on the same monitor as the mouse cursor. Note that as soon as I move the mouse cursor from its original position, the login screen follows it, so the problem is visible only initially, and it fixes itself whenever I interact with the mouse. I would expect either of the following two things to happen to fix this glitch: - have the mouse cursor initially centered on the primary monitor, where the login screen is - have the login screen initially positioned on the monitor that contains the mouse cursor ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: lightdm 1.3.3-0ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-15.23-generic 3.5.4 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-15-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia wl ApportVersion: 2.5.2-0ubuntu4 Architecture: i386 CheckboxSubmission: 2c7995ffdf051a6d0adf7ab2c7be5ba9 CheckboxSystem: 7e42599bda39ea7ff8b528272b6ef52b Date: Wed Sep 26 07:47:46 2012 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Beta i386 (20120328) SourcePackage: lightdm UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to quantal on 2012-08-30 (26 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1056647/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
