Hi pluggers,
I have a laptop running Ubuntu 12.10. When at the office I have it
plugged into a docking station with external monitor, at home I run it
standalone.
Previous versions of Ubuntu would not automatically configure the 2nd
monitor, but I could run the nvidia-settings app and set it up easily.
Now with 12.10 when I'm at work it automatically finds and configures
the monitor and activates it, however it always puts it to the right of
the internal monitor, whereas I'd like to set it up as 'above'.
Again, I can do this easily by running the nvidia-settings app, however
I'd like it to just remember the preferred setup. Remember I still need
it to behave properly when I'm roaming and have only the single internal
monitor.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Steve
