Promt showing on wrong monitor

[nhagen]

I'm not able to get the prompt to show up on my primary monitor, even after following the recommendation here

Is anyone else able to reproduce this?

What's your monitor layout like? And which of those monitor do you want to the prompt to show up on?

I've got 3 monitors w/ the prompt on the center one, and something like this in 10-monitor.conf in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d directory works for me:

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier "DP-2"
    Option "PreferredMode" "1050x1680"
    Option "DPMS"
    Option "Rotate" "left"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
    Identifier "DVI-I-1"
    Option "PreferredMode" "2560x1440"
    Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
    Identifier "DP-0"
    Option "PreferredMode" "2560x1440"
    Option "Primary" "true"
    Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
    Identifier "Screen0"
    DefaultDepth 24
    Option "metamodes" "DP-0: nvidia-auto-select +2560+0, DVI-I-1: nvidia-auto-select +0+0, DP-2: nvidia-auto-select +5120+0 {rotation=left}"
    SubSection "Display"
        Depth 24
    EndSubSection
EndSection

I haven't tried the xrandr setup script way though.

[prikhi]

also what's the xrandr command you're using in the config, and what's the output of xrandr -q when you're logged in?

I have the same problem. The 10-monitor.conf includes:

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier  "HDMI-A-0"
    Option      "Primary" "true"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier  "HDMI-A-1"
    Option      "Above" "HDMI-A-0"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier  "DVI-D-0"
    Option      "RightOf" "HDMI-A-0"
EndSection

So the prompt should show up on HDMI-A-0, but instead it's displayed on DVI-D-0. The output of xrandr -q is:

Sorry, the machine that I was having this issue is out of commission for unrelated reasons so I'm not able to provide more debugging right now. Will keep following this thread in case I am able to provide any more information.

@x0rzist Thanks, that helps. I've replicated your setup in virtualbox, gotten the main window to show up on the primary monitor, but still working on getting it centered correctly.

Should be fixed by 53b21abfd429b8b758b89f89b2ca18407eb26383, releasing v0.3.2 now, please re-open if it doesn't solve the issue for you.
