Hi Felmon,

I see I was partly blind. yes, there is a config file for root but

it contains nothing interesting, just an Autostart instruction, Michael, just as you say.
sorry for the false start.
I have been told there is no way to save
configuration built into xrandr
so (I guessed) the configuration must be stored by the TDERandRtray
application. but I don't see anything in
'/root/.trinity/share/config/tderandrtrayrc' and besides, if there were,
it should affect the second user too.
only for clarification. Is root a typo or was your first user really
root? If not you should search in the /home/$USER/.trinity/share/config/tderandrtrayrc
folder.
BTW: Settings in /root/.trinity/... are only valid for root. The global
settings should be somewhere else (e.g. /opt/trinity/etc)
I didn't find anything here. I dug as far as
/opt/trinity/etc/xdg/menus/
but grep came up empty.
Charles, asking which program I'm using: not 'arandr' but a variant,
"tderandrtray" which comes with the Trinity KDE desktop (old KDE, a
further development of KDE3). 'locate' reveals nothing interesting.
my guess is something in the display configuration has been altered.
'monitor.xml' looks sane (to me); not sure where else to look.
I would be happy just to re-install this or that to fix it but I don't
have time to do a reinstall of the whole chimichanga, not right now.
I am getting comfortable with the second user; I'm sudoing around but
may try to migrate and rename.
