Public bug reported:
1) Description: Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS
Release: 24.04
2) not sure which package this applies to
3) I have two monitors connected to a laptop in clamshell mode. When I
log out of my profile, I see my background wallpaper blurred, and my
username on the primary monitor that I have setup, as expected.
4) However, when rebooting this layout is ditched for some reason:
- I see a gray background (not the main problem)
- the username/login page is on the secondary monitor
- it is the wrong orientation ( the secondary monitor is setup to be portrait
mode) but the login appears horizontally, seeming quite unpolished
- the scale is completely wrong.
Then upon logging in, there is no display output at all, the monitors
detect no USB-C input.
The workaround (which is quite cumbersome) is to disconnect the USB-C
cable from the laptop, remove the laptop from the dock, and open up it
up, log in, connect the usb-c cable so that it recognises the
configuration, and then close the laptop and put it back into the dock.
The monitor configuration is:
Laptop -> USB-C -> Dell P2224HE (primary, landscape) -> Display Port Daisy
Chain -> Dell P2224HE (secondary, portrait).
When booting the same configuration in Windows, it seems to remember the
layout somehow so that the username/login screen is shown on the primary
monitor in the correct orientation with some splash screen.
