[Bug 1384249] [NEW] Display settings are not saved after reboot

 

Public bug reported:

Clean Ubuntu GNOME install of 14.04.

Two displays connected - an DVI FHD monitor + HDMI HD TV
When settings up mirror displays everything works nicely, yet after a reboot the settings aren't saved, and I'm back with two desktops for each display, which require me to configure it all over again. 

IMO it's a papercut type of bug.
