@gord: What your company is doing is their decision, not a lot we can do. Changing OS over a bug doesn't seems like a rationnal decision, your company could have looked at this issue, and contributed a fix for likely a lot less of efforts than it's going to take them to change systems on a thousand mahcines.
It might be that Mint is going to have the same bug next time they update/rebase on Ubuntu (they are based on it after all), in which case you handle a transition for an OS which is having a less strong security and support story, good luck with that. Not sure about the numbers, we don't track users/installations nor collect datas. It's just that Canonical supports Unity as its main product, tyou liking the desktop or not is not changing that fact. I'm sure you could find somebody selling support for GNOME remix though... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1292398 Title: multi-monitor : second screen position isn't saved from one session to another Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: (Noticed on Ubuntu 14.04 beta 1 GNOME) At work I have a second screen, which I prefer to virtually put on the left side of my laptop screen. Using gnome-control-center I can change the position of the second without problem. But when I disconnect the second screen (to work on another place) and then connect it again OR if I just power off the laptop and turn it on again, the second screen position is set back to the default right position.
