CAUSE = clean install of Ubuntu 18.10(4.18.0-16-generic #17-Ubuntu SMP
Fri Feb 8 00:06:57 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux), attach
VGA as primary monitor and HDMI(wireless Tx) as secondary to projector
and then apply custom monitor positioning using g-c-c "Displays"
panel.
RESULT = correct positioning and working of multiple displays until
reboot or shutdown, then--problems until HDMI cable is unseated and
rebooted again.
