The same for me. I have two displays, the 15" LCD (LVDS) of the laptop Ubuntu is running in, and an external 19" CRT. The graphics chip is an Intel GM945. it looks like the LCD is set as the primary display (i.e. where all the toolbars are located, where fullscreen videos will show, and where all new windows appear) only when the CRT is set left to, right to or under the LCD. Unfortunately, my setup is with the CRT _over_ the LCD (I think it's a similar setup as Effenberg0x0). When I set this in gnome-display-properties, the external CRT is always set to primary. So it looks like the criterion for choosing which is the primary display depends on the displays' position, which is no good for me. Also, xrandr --output LVDS --primary simply does nothing for me.
I'd strongly suggest to include an option like "Set this display as the primary", and clearly show in the displays' graph which of them is the primary. -- gnome-display-properties: no way to set which is the primary monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/206528 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
