[Bug 1543872] [NEW] Desktop streched across both screens

 

Public bug reported:

I have a intel laptop with a nvidia k2100m quadro GPU. Intel HD graphics controls the internal display and the nvidia card handles the display port out. When trying to utilize a dual monitor setup the output of the desktop looks like its been stretched across both displays. It appears like the resolution is very low and the mouse pointer is incorrectly calibrated with its location on the screen. The dual monitor setup is completely useless with this bug. I believe this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1382462 is the same issue filed way back in 2014. However, it was never resolved. This is a pretty big issue. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix it?
