I turned on my newly installed Pop OS and then suddenly the login screen is located on the left monitor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s horrible! Because I put my left monitor into a vertical position, and the Pop OS login screen orientation is in horizontal mode. Therefore I had to tilt my head -90 degrees to type my password and log in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, the fix is quite simple. After you log in, make sure you set the primary display to the correct monitor via Setting > Displays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I set primary display on 2, which will be our main and login screen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Once your monitor configuration is correct, you can easily copy that configuration to GDM which handles the login screen:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

sudo cp ~\/.config\/monitors.xml ~gdm\/.config\/<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
This will copy the current settings of our multiple monitors to the Gnome Display Manager configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then reboot to apply changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo reboot<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
From now on, the primary display will be the screen where the login prompt will show. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n
