Created attachment 135557 [details] xrandr --props I use X.Org 1.19.3 on Linux. I use a Dell UP2414Q monitor, which exposes two outputs via Multi-Stream Transport (MST). I verified this issue is also present when using a display requiring multiple connections, e.g. the Dell UP3218K, which uses 2 DisplayPort connections. When starting Xorg, the position of the individual outputs relative to each other is the wrong way around: instead of (left half, right half), I see (right half, left half) on my monitor. Also, when using xrandr --listmonitors, I see 2 monitors instead of 1. To fix this, I currently use the following in my ~/.xsession: xrandr --output DP-5.8 --auto --right-of DP-5.9 xrandr --setmonitor up2414q auto DP-5.8,DP-5.9 I think it would be better if Xorg (specifically the RANDR extension, I suppose?) would look at the TILE property, arrange the outputs accordingly and create a monitor object accordingly. I attached the output of xrandr --props. Please let me know if you need any further details. Thanks!
