Lubuntu hirsute daily QA-test on 
- dell [optiplex] 780 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 
5000/6000/7350/8350)

this box shares displays with prior comment (d755-8) so
landscape+portrait, though opposite order due cables

saved & applied monitor.settings

logout & login again.
Monitor.settings did NOT survive logout & login here...


On same box I booted Lubuntu focal daily (yesterdays)
repeating the same identical test. Differences here are only the left-right 
appear differently, so I swap left+right, then right is made portrait-left.

On focal daily, the monitor.settings survive logout in the live session,
as they instantly appear on login again.

** Description changed:

- hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290)
+ - hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290)
+ + dell [optiplex] 780 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 
5000/6000/7350/8350)
+ + dell [optiplex] 755 (c2d-e8300, 8gb, amd/ati radeon rv610/radeon hd2400 
pro/xt)
  
  ** background
  
  QA-test install, login to a ~recent hirsute install (untouched) to
  verify nothing has changed, screens aren't in correct orientation?? yet
  command history from my validation post-install is present  (I always
  adjust displays post-install as part of confirmation install is good).
  No problem, I'll adjust monitor settings again, logout and log back in
  as a test (I've noted this behavior before recently, but just ignored it
  as it gets erased next qa-test)
- 
  
  ** issue & re-creation steps
  
  - adjust displays to match setup.  My displays are one above the other. The 
default-right monitor gets moved to above-the-other. APPLY and SAVE settings.
  - logout
  - login again
  
  ** expected result
  
  I expect the screens return to the setup I applied & saved
  
  ** actual result
  
  Monitor settings have returned to the original left-right as they were
  before changing setting, or post install. Same occurs after a reboot
  
+ 
+ ** another test strategy
+ 
+ - using a Lubuntu live system, boot & adjust monitor.settings
+ - logout
+ - login again
+ 
+ On focal daily (20.04.2) the changed settings survive logout/login, on
+ current hirsute they do not; just as installed systems.
  
  ** more notes
  
  this could be related to the above-below orientation of a number of my
  boxes; so won't be experienced by many users. My guess I've been noting
  this for about a week (very subjective), including on my primary box
  (maybe 3 logins; it's not occurring on suspends which I use most
  nights). On my primary box, I experienced a crashed session (forced
  logout) and was willing to blame it as a consequence of the crashed
  session; this is a pristine install.
  
  (I believe i've seen it on landscape+portrait, but I'll have to confirm
  that via re-test, (either one of d780 or d755-8, but as I couldn't re-
  create on other box I ignored it. I've filed now as this is now 3 sets-
  of-displays involved meaning at least 3 boxes; each of my displays are
  used by multiple boxes)
