Same problem here. Many people mention as a workaround to delete the monitors.xml file. However, this workaround is only valid if you want to use the default resolution at startup. For me it's not possible because Ubuntu is trying to set a default resolution that is not supported by my screen. Therefore I MUST have the monitors.xml file to indicate the screen resolution I want at start-up. And that works. However still the annoying warning message.
Other workaround mention to add the desired resolution in the X11/xorg.conf file, but this file was deprecated and creating it to do this workaround is still more troublesome than having the annoying warning. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1511247 Title: Ubuntu 15.10 Could not apply the stored configuration for monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1511247/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
