You don't say what Desktop you're using or the video hardware.

I have a problem under KDE with a monitor not always turning on after going into stand-by
mode.  I could do various things in KDE's system-settings to get it back but it was a
pain.  I ended up using a few xrandr commands to get it back.

So, short story made long, maybe using the right xrandr incantation would do what you need.

Perhaps it might.

The card is a low end Radeon 5450 chip. I have one monitor in VGA and the other in DVI. If you need more I can give you the lspci?

I'm using GNOME. Try a GNOME classic and xorg to no avail as well.

Okay so let me ask this then. Does anybody know how I would change how I scroll from one screen to another in Xrandr? Currently, I must access my left screen by exiting my right screen to the right (and left on my left).
