[Bug 1874217] Re: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors
Issue is fixed for me with mutter 3.36.4. And yes, I got the scaling bug mentioned by Wallo013, too. Although mine isn't that heavy. I use 100 % and something is setting it below that (75 % - 90 %?). If I change scaling to 125 % and back to 100 %, everything is fine. After Relogin or Reboot, scaling is wrong again. But this bug is not linked to multiple screens at least for me, so maybe should get reported in another bug ticket. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874217 Title: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1874217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1874217] Re: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors
The issue is fixed for me, however now fonts in GDM and gnome desktop (toolbar at the top and file font on the desktop, but not normal apps) are at least 200% the normal size. However all config are good (gnome-tweak indicate fonts are at 100% and the screen configurations are all to 100% magnification). If I use gnome-tweak, I set the font to 101% then back to 100% and everything go back to normal until I logout and login. There is a high probability it is not linked to the change, but that's my new issue right now. Note that one of my screens is a 43" 4K screen, so I wonder if somewhere the 4K may be interpreted as a high density screen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874217 Title: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1874217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1874217] Re: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors
IMO we shouldn't split the bug unless there's evidence of an unrelated cause in cases where there's no overlap. I'm not convinced that blaming it on Nvidia isn't justified. The xrandr CLI tool cannot directly fix a broken monitor layout; usually it turns off one monitor and spits out an error. In any case there's definitely an issue that's lower-level than mutter. A workaround I've found is to switch to a single landscape monitor configuration and then specify the ENTIRE monitor layout in a single xrandr CLI command. You can't do it in stages or you'll get errors. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874217 Title: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1874217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1874217] Re: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors
Either the bug title should be renamed to something more generic or a new bug should be created. As far as I can tell, many users have this problem but don't necessarily have the screen overlap issue. At least, overlap is not mentioned in [the reddit post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/g82u58/cant_rotate_monitor_orientation_in_ubuntu_2004/) that links here. In any case, how can I help find the bug? NVidia server settings can fix the monitor rotation, but I cannot figure out how to persist those changes. My situation is even worse than described. Sometimes when applying the settings in "Displays," the setting changes to "Single Display" from "Join Displays" without my input, and the monitor I want in portrait mode goes black while Gnome still thinks it is part of my desktop... even after I click the "revert" button. As a software engineer I would like to help to track down the bug and fix it. However, I don't see any instructions in mutter's README.md about how to build and test from source. Same for https://github.com/GNOME/gnome-control-center. Any pointers to documentation would be appreciated. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874217 Title: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1874217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1874217] Re: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors
I can verify the symptoms as described here with the nvidia 440.95.01 driver an Nvidia P620 card with three monitors (left and right monitors in portrait center in landscape. I can use the Nvidia supplied GUI app nvidia-settings to configure three screens (using rotate left in the nvidia-settings configurator to get proper orientation) and press apply then everything works properly, though as previously pointed out those settings are lost during login. When configuring with the Ubuntu Settings Display dialog I must use portriat rotate-right to get the correct orientation (along with the improperly scaled viewport). For those with two monitors, if you put the portrait monitor on the left of the landscape monitor the ubuntu settings program generates the correct result (at least for me). I'd be willing to install the nvidia 450 driver directly if I believe the problem would go away but I've not hear anyone say that's true. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874217 Title: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1874217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The problem isn't fixed (at least for me). My system: OS: Ubuntu 20.04 - Linux [...] 5.4.0-40-generic [...] x86_64 Graphics: GeForce GTX 650 Ti BOOST, nvidia-driver-440 Monitors: Primary monitor connected via HDMI, secondary rotated monitor connected via display port, staying left from my primary monitor. Before upgrading from 19.10 to 20.04 rotation with gnome-control-center settings worked quiet fine (I only had to configure this once). Now I have the same problem as described above. Each time I power on my secondary monitor I have to manually change orientation by using xrandr commands. Rotating via gnome-control-center results in weird unrotated overlapping display contents. Once configured manually via xrandr, after suspension and wake up the settings are still working. After reboot settings are lost again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874217 Title: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1874217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks to nugai's comment#25, this works for me: 1. Create a screen layout in `~/.config/monitors.xml`. 2. Copy the file to `/var/lib/gdm3/.config/` and change ownership: sudo cp ~/.config/monitors.xml /var/lib/gdm3/.config/ sudo chown gdm:gdm /var/lib/gdm3/.config/monitors.xml The monitor layout will persist across restarts and screen locks. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874217 Title: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1874217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1874217] Re: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors
FYI, I had the problems of nVidia settings not surviving since 18.04 (and every release in between) up to 20.04. I believe the underlying cause is that gdm3 greeter opens a new X Screen for the user session after login, and a discrepancy between the X screen configurations cannot be resolved because there is no way -- or, more precisely, none that I'm aware of -- that would allow storing anywhere, a configuration for the new X Screen that gets spawned. Proof of the existence of a new X Screen can be found by starting a remote terminal session against the target system and then running "sudo lsof /tmp/.X11-unix/X* ". Before the login, only one pid exists from node "/tmp/.X11-unix/X0". After the login, a second pid exists from node "/tmp/.X11-unix/X1". I believe this "X0" and "X1" refer to "X Screen 0" and "X Screen 1", but the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file know only about Screen 0 -- therefore initializing a new screen after every login and/or return after the screen saver has been used. Further proof can be found by switching from gdm3 to lightdm by issuing "sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm". This causes other problems (with background screens and alignment of screens, etc), but it proves the fact that monitor layout configurations survive on the same hardware/software components (specifically, same version of nVidia drivers, xorg.conf files, ec), when all that changes is the display manager and how it handles X Screens. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874217 Title: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1874217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

An amendment to my previous post re selecting "say" File. Some applications ie.

An annoying "feature" of this bug is with application drop down menu's. If selecting (say) File from an app in the LHS the options of this menu drop down in a box on the left side in the RHS. Action expected: Selecting "File" should produce a menu directly under the option. Related to this is a converse effect. With Thunderbird in the RHS, replying to an email causes a reply email dialog to pop up (possibly off-screen) in the scrolled LHS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874217 Title: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1874217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Another "me-too" I'm afraid. Screens were fine under 19.10, upgraded to 20.04 yesterday and also have 2 screens (left 32" landscape, right 22" portrait).

You're right that it's important to note this is NOT a fractional scaling bug. I was only talking about root causes.

[Bug 1874217] Re: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors
Same issue for me with Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti. Settings in monitor.xml are not being applied. xrandr and nvidia-settings are able to change the monitor rotation, just gnome-settings messes it up. Just blaming the Nvidia driver for this without giving a reason seems unprofessional to me, especially because other programs like xrandr do not have any issue setting the proper monitor setup. To nail down the issue: screen/monitor positions can be set without problem in monitor.xml, but rotation settings are not applied or ignored. When trying to make the settings in gnome-settings it is like described above: As long as not monitor is rotated everything can be set up nicely, but as soon as the monitor is being rotated the screen is messed up in the way described above. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874217 Title: [nvidia] Dual monitor setup with secondary monitor in portrait-right mode cause tiled windows to occupy 1.5 monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1874217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

We also need to check to see if a multi-monitor system with only an Intel GPU has the same bug. ** Description changed: - I will provide below a screen capture.
