Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

Which monitor who is primary are important using Unity. Unity uses the primary monitor for launcher and dhttp://askubuntu.com/questions/35465/configuring-two-displays-with-unityash. The work-a-round is using xrandr to change this: xrandr --output DVI-0 --primary from a terminal. It would be much nicer if the primary monitor could be pointed out in Gnome-display-properties.
