[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1292398] Re: Second screen position isn't saved from one session to another
Yeah still have the same problem in a test install of 16.04, though we've been using other distros since this bug occurred years ago as it makes it totally unusable for work.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1292398] Re: multi-monitor : second screen position isn't saved from one session to another
Sebastian said: The user numbers are only one metric, those numbers are low, the importance of the other bug is High due to the fact that.. Then in that case, may I suggest a change of policy somewhere? I've just been informed that this weekend our entire corporate entity will move to Mint (MATE) from Ubuntu Gnome, due to this bug. The kicker is that they now won't be going for Landmark next quarter, which is annoying. That's over 3,100 desktops lost to a competitor (it's business, so competitor is the appropriate word in this case), according to the feeling I'm hearing they may jump ship on servers soon too, which is more my department, so I'm extremely disappointed. The bug simply doesn't happen on Mint and time is money, simple as that, it's not my decision, it was board-level no less. Every decision on bug triage as well as release policies have consequences, I shouldn't have to mention how much the adoption and force-feeding of Unity has tainted the reputation of Ubuntu in many corporate eyes that were used to Gnome2 or legacy CDE-lookalikes. 58 affected - yeah right. Moving forward: we use local mirrors to do all install and updates, we also have very strict firewalling and all traffic at every site goes though a application gateway to sanitise traffic - could that be a reason why those numbers are low? If so, what should be allowed (popcon?, not using local mirrors? something else?) to allow Canonical HQ to see the true user numbers of non-Unity DEs? -- 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.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1292398] Re: multi-monitor : second screen position isn't saved from one session to another
I have it on every single machine that has more than one monitor (that's every single machine I own, basically), across various video card manufacturers. Because of that, my hunch is that everyone is affected if they use more than one monitor :| -- 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.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 23810] Re: Evolution is unusable in 1024x768
10.04 LTS Is affected, as was 8.04 LTS before it. Telling me to upgrade my users (only 400 of them left on Ubuntu now, directly due to this bug) to a new mail client or OS version 16 months into a supported run of 3 years is tantamount to abandoning us. If I'm going to upgrade the company-wide OS I'd rather change to a distro that gets bugs fixed, not provides excuses. Not all your users can run the latest alpha or can change mail clients every 10 minutes. None of my users have sudo rights for a reason. The reason we've had to move our mobile workforce from Ubuntu is that the keyboard-move didn't work on all of our hardware(!) We don't need a workaround, we don't need told to use something else. We need a fix. We're sick of the excuses and workarounds, quite frankly. I've just had this bug 3 times on this nightshift alone. Six years soon.
