An update: I disabled synergy, set the monitor configuration to the desired format and it worked. Re-enabled synergy and all is happy now. Have been through multiple reboot cycles and the monitor config is ok.
So for my case, this appears to be an interaction problem with synergy and monitor configuration, with a fairly easy workaround. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1312342 Title: dual monitor breaks when not config'd for builtin monitor is to the left of second monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1312342/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
