Title:
  Screen layout not remembered

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

  The gnome-display-properties panel does not remember the layout of the
  screen, and is also affected by a bug similar to #351900 where
  changing the layout will garble the X display and force me to
  disconnect.

  In my case, I have a laptop with a dock and an external monitor
  plugged to the dock. Every time I put the laptop back in the dock, I
  have to start the display properties, re-adjust the screen layout
  (external monitor to the left, laptop to the right) and click "apply"
  -- these settings should be remembered.

  Also after hitting "apply", the X display is garbled (parts of the
  laptop screen are displayed on the external monitor), which forces me
  to disconnect and reconnect for everything to work fine.
