I have noticed that unity-greeter does not initially put the user
list on the primary display (as indicated in monitors.xml), which is
annoying. But that's a separate bug.

The workaround #6 didn't work for me because Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't have a
/var/lib/lightdm/.config directory. Will it work if I create the
directory?
Instead, I have managed to force multiple monitors correct resolutions for
LightDM using the script suggested in:
Steps to reproduce the issue:
Setting screen resolution, primary display and desktop mode to the desired
values as well as screen positioning.
Setup is: Primary display: 1366x768, Secondary display: 1600x900, extended
desktop, secondary display left of primary display.
Expected result: Lightdm
Notes: Workaround #6 does work for me. While my primary display is
showing the login screen now, the secondary screen displays a Ubuntu
logo.
That is how it is designed to work. When you move your mouse to the
other screen the list of users will move to the other screen as well.
I have
Where do you get your most from? Mirrored mode makes sense if you give a
presentation on your laptop, besides that i can not think of a single usecase.
Since when is it not a bug when it works on some maschines?
I would expect it to work to extend the display and have every display at max
default using mirrored mode with lower resolution make sense and cover
most of use cases.
What do you expect the system works?

Workaround:
1. log in
2. use xrandr or the Displays control utility to configure your monitors how
you'd like them to be configured in the login screen
3. copy ~/.config/monitors.xml to /var/lib/lightdm/.config

Changing affected package to unity-greeter (the login screen launched by
lightdm) since lightdm itself doesn't do anything graphical.
** Package changed: lightdm (Ubuntu) = unity-greeter (Ubuntu)

The same happens with the gtk greeter.
The problem here is, that lightdm/xorg mirrors the display per default (at
least with intel drivers, not with nvidia tho), so on both monitors i see the
lightdm login screen and with one monitor being lower resolution, the second
monitor gets the lower
Thank you for your bug report, does it happen if you use the gtk
greeter? lightdm itself doesn't decide on resolution, it's either and
xorg issue or a problem with gnome-settings-daemon in the unity-greeter
