The two monitors are set to be different X servers. When I use "xrandr -o left" 
to
rotate the screen, I must open the terminal in the right monitor, or the 
content of both monitors
will be messed up. That is another problem I have proposed in the same forum 
titled as
"'xrandr -o left' sometimes mess up the screens", yet not be responded till 
now. Anyway,
thanks for your ideas.

Maybe this is a dumb idea, but did you try putting that command into a

shell script, making the script executable, and giving gnome startup

the path to your script? �My thought is that sometimes those launcher

programs don't honor flags that you pass to the program you're trying

to run.
