            Bug ID: 295382
          Severity: normal
           Version: unspecified
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kde@davidedmundson.co.uk
           Summary: Login greeter is misplaced in a dual screen setup with
                    different types of monitors
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: einar@heavensinferno.net
          Hardware: Other
            Status: NEW
         Component: greeter
           Product: lightdm

I have the following setup:

Primary monitor: 1920x1200
Secondary monitor: 1600x900

The secondary monitor is on the left of the primary, rotated 90 degrees.

I set up LightDM's resolution with the following script, according to the
LightDM configuration:

/usr/bin/xrandr --output DisplayPort-0 --pos 900x0 --mode 1920x1080 --refresh
60\nxrandr --output DisplayPort-1 --pos 0x0 --mode 1600x900 --rotate left
--refresh
 59.9782
/usr/bin/xrandr --output DisplayPort-0 --primary

What happens is that the greeter is on the primary screen, but moved towards
the lower left of the screen, i.e. in the  middle position of the work area of
the two combined monitors including the non-visible space (or "dead area"). In
other words, the greeter takes into account the "dead area" of the display
while it shouldn't (like KDE does).
