configuration causes blank screens

[Chris Laideer]

I am trying to set up my laptop with the configuration shown in the attachment, if I delete the config file the first time I set it up it works fine. If I restart the X server, ie logout or reboot both screens go blank just after logging in.

Here is my trouble causing config file:

[ { "enabled" : true, "id" : "93eaa9cbe2797d475b6e28590a525823", "metadata" : { "fullname" : "xrandr-DELL U2212HM-PF48H2AS2ECL", "name" : "HDMI-1-0" }, "mode" : { "refresh" : 60.0, "size" : { "height" : 1080, "width" : 1920 } }, "pos" : { "x" : 1366, "y" : 0 }, "primary" : false, "rotation" : 1 }, { "enabled" : true, "id" : "c3d4fde21f382c912a0249473ef5803b", "metadata" : { "fullname" : "xrandr-unknown", "name" : "LVDS-1-0" }, "mode" : { "refresh" : 60.0022, "size" : { "height" : 768, "width" : 1366 } }, "pos" : { "x" : 0, "y" : 678 }, "primary" : false, "rotation" : 1 } ]

I have narrowed the problem down to the y position (of the second monitor) if I set it to 0, my screens will not go blank during login.

I am using a laptop using optimums, with a GTX 660M.

Here is some sys info...
