Bug Description
17.10 beta has issues with remembering display settings. Whenever I connect my external monitor, I have to change my preferred setup (only external display active) and preferred resolution. I've to do this multiple times a day and it is quite frustrating.
I'm running Ubuntu 17.10 on an XPS 13 laptop. My external monitor is a 4k LG connected via the USB type-c port.
I don't remember this being a problem before 17.10 shipped Gnome 3.26 so probably that's where the bug comes from.
