I have two monitors with resolutions 1366x768
(CRT1) and 1024x768
(CRT0). CRT0 stays to the right from CRT1 so common resolution is (1366+1024)x768
. Recently I noticed that when I move mouse from CRT1 to CRT0 it doesn't go to CRT0 immideately, that is, the common resulution is bigger than (1366+1024)x768
. I went to X Server Settings
and there was the following:
It is really wierd where that 1708
number came from but I didn't think much about it and just changed it to +1366+0
, saved it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
and forgot about it. But on the next boot I see misterious +1708+0
again. I tried to change settings to this:
That worked only until reboot too.
So I am lost. I don't have any errors, I am able to save xorg.conf
I tried everything I could have thought of, but on each boot I get that +1708+0
.
Here's my /etc/X11/xorg.conf
.

Thank you in advance.
UPD
The issue with screen position has been fixed, it was about monitors.xml
file which overrided xorg.conf
settings, thanks to @Jacob Vlijm. But when I changed position in monitors.xml
ubuntu forgot where is my primary monitor and now after reboot I have monitors 'swapped' where I have to move mouse to the left in order to go to right monitor. Here's my monitors.xml. By the way, This solution didn't help.
