How to get multiple displays working with docking station?
Solution 1:
This affected me too. Finally after weeks of frustration I found the solution posted in a Launchpad bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1382462).
In short:
- Install CCSM (sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager)
-
In CCSM go to "General Options" --> "Display Settings" and do the following:
- Un-check "Detect Outputs"
-
In the Outputs array, set the resolutions of each of your screens.
In my case it was:
1920x1080+0+0
1920x1080+1920+0
Now edit your display configuration as usual. In Unity: Dash --> Screen Display
