Description Alessandro Polverini 2004-12-01 12:44:06 EST

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3)
Gecko/20041020 Galeon/1.3.18

Description of problem:
I'm finally able to select dual head using the program, but I'm unable
to choose which one of the two monitors is on the left and on the right.

So I had to manually edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and modify the line:
Screen      0  "Screen0" LeftOf "Screen1"
in
Screen      0  "Screen0" RightOf "Screen1"

It would be (very) useful to set the monitor layout directly from
system-config-display

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
system-config-display-1.0.24-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install FC3
2. run system-config-display
3. The left and right monitor are swapped (on my system)

Mass update: move dual head bugs from FC5 to FC6, no way they can get fixed
before FC5 release at this point.

Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2006-07-06 18:02:45 EDT

Add to FC6Destop tracker

Comment 3 Matthew Miller 2006-07-10 17:35:33 EDT

Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security
updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and
reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and
hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test
release, reopen and change the version to match.

Thank you!
