FreeBSD 11.1-STABLE #0 r326044 nvidia-driver-384.98 xfce4-settings-4.12.1 File .config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/displays.xml Problem I use a dual monitor setup with "<property name="X" type="int" value="1920"/>", ie. with the second monitor 1920px to the right On every monitor power down, xfce4 decides that they are mirrored instead and changes the file displays.xml to value="0" for the right monitor and the file is overwritten. Tried - Setting ownership to the above file to root - Set the propery <channel name="displays" version="1.0"> to "locked" - Applied this patch to xfce4-settings-4.12.1: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14096 https://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-settings/commit?id=e128126f5e32c1018854403bb846cb9d6a091bb0 - "metamodes" "DP-2: nvidia-auto-select +0+0, DP-3: nvidia-auto-select +1920+0" in xorg.conf (ignored by xfce apparently) - nvidia-settings - nvidia-xconfig .xinitrc has just "/usr/local/bin/startxfce4" None of the above changes the behaviour and I am out of ideas how to fix. Are there other files I am unaware of that could override displays.xml? Thankful for any hints on the subject...
