[Bug 764410] [NEW] Fails to parse xorg.conf, fails to auto enable 2nd monitor, fails to use primary monitor

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nvidia-settings

The 2nd monitor is not enabled when installing 11.4. That means, that we
have to install nvidia-settings and activate it. Beginners shouldn't
have to do that.

There is no xorg.conf to parse or only a bogus one, so settings cannot
be saved.

When activating the 2nd monitor, the app decides that it will be the
primary even though the other monitor has been selected for that task.
we have to re-launch nvidia-settings for things to be applied properly.
