Hi,
I've recently switched to using one of my screens in vertical
orientation. This is fine from the desktop (after login), but currently
the greeter displays on the vertical screen but on it's side.
Is it possible to move the greeter to the other screen, which is
horizontal or rotate the greeter so it displays correctly?
Cheers
Daniel

cat /etc/fixscreen.sh:

/usr/bin/xrandr --output DP-1 --rotate left
execute xrandr in your x session to get the output names.

Along with [1], I have added the command to the bottom of
/etc/gdm3/Init/Default
which seems to have resolved the issue!

It might still be possible to do something similar, but the
configuration files have changed a bit.
