Issue
Cinnamon goes into fallback mode
Steps to reproduce
Create an Xorg configuration with multiple screens in ServerLayout
Start Cinnamon
Expected behaviour
Cinnamon starts normally
Other information
I've seen this issue #4276 but because it's quite old, I wanted to see if the situation was different, or if I'm possibly going about configuring my setup the wrong way. My setup is laptop screen running from the integrated graphics and external screen connected to dedicated graphics via HDMI. I put the Xorg configurations in the next section.
Both monitors used, display extended, can move mouse across screens, different resolutions (laptop 1080p, external 1440p), Cinnamon crashes
Same problem trying to set up xorg with "coolbits" for box with two nvidia GPUs / one monitor running BOINC. Logs and other in the thread below on the LInux Mint forum.
