I'm running Edubuntu 14.04.1 with Gnome-shell on a 17" laptop with a 19"
monitor on the right, which is higher than the laptop (as set in display
settings). However, upon reboot, the settings put the monitor on  the
left, with the laptop higher. Shouldn't this be saved to the video card?

Bug description:
  (Noticed on Ubuntu 14.04 beta 1 GNOME)
  At work I have a second screen, which I prefer to virtually put on the left side of my laptop screen.
  Using gnome-control-center I can change the position of the second without problem.
  But when I disconnect the second screen (to work on another place) and then connect it again
  OR if I just power off the laptop and turn it on again,
  the second screen position is set back to the default right position.
