Hello, I am not the original bug reporter, but I wanted to follow up with you and let you know that I do still experience this issue on 18.04.
The last time I tested was Thanksgiving when I as home from Uni with my home machine. I have my television plugged into my gtx780 via a dp - hdmi converter and my monitor plugged into the native hdmi port on the card. I did disable my nvidia card in the bios and plug into my Intel iGPU from my motherboard header and still experienced the issue so I hope that is applicable enough for you to consider this to still be a valid bug report. When I first login my lock screen appears on the television which is not always on. On my main monitor I see the purple ubuntu background that replaces the black on gdm. I can hit enter, type password, hit enter and the desktop will read the default setting and appear on my monitor properly. I dont believe GDM is reading the primary monitor setting that gsettings applies when you set it in the GUI. I'm not sure if thats possible to detect when a user is not logged in but following the mouse also sounds like a great Idea. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1723025 Title: no login screen when booting with an external monitor attached To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/1723025/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
