Same problem here. Many people mention as a workaround to delete the monitors.xml file. However, this workaround is only valid if you want to use the default resolution at startup. For me it's not possible because Ubuntu is trying to set a default resolution that is not supported by my screen. Therefore I MUST have the monitors.xml file to indicate the screen resolution I want at start-up. And that works. However still the annoying warning message.
Other workaround mention to add the desired resolution in the X11/xorg.conf file, but this file was deprecated and creating it to do this workaround is still more troublesome than having the annoying warning. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1511247 Title: Ubuntu 15.10 Could not apply the stored configuration for monitors Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I just did a fresh install of ubuntu 15.10 on my Nuc5i5ryh with a iiyama Prolite B2888UHSU and everytime I boot I get the message "Could not apply the stored configuration for monitors". When I kill the message it puts me back on a undesired resolution, and I have to set the resolution setting up again. Also when I set up the "Displays" settings , it shows screen resolution that souldn't be there (4:3, 16:10..). I tried removing monitors.xml just in case, doesn't work. I ran xrandr and sudo get-edid|parse-edid (see attached), it shows inconsistency between edid data and xrandr. I had Ubuntu 15.04 just before and I hadn't this error.
