Title:
gnome-settings-daemon (3.4.2-0ubuntu0.6.3) breaks nvidia multi-

Bug description:
[ Description ]
The fix for bug #1065979 regresses multi-monitor behaviour for some
users.
[ Fix ]
Revert it.
[ Regression potential ]
This will undo any fix for bug #1065979. But we promise that we won't
*introduce* bugs in stable release updates, so this has to take
priority.
The contributor of the fix to that bug can try again if desired, but
probably with an extended ageing period in -proposed.
[ Original report ]
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?

I use this PC at my workplace, so it is important for me to solve this
problem.
Thank you for your help!
