18.10 - Ubuntu switching to single display when it boot up












1















I'm currently having the following problem:



When Ubuntu boots up, one of mine monitors turns black (I will call it monitor A), and the other one shows me the login screen (Monitor B). After I complete the login, the monitor A keeps black, and the Monitor B behaves as a second monitor (It does not appear the task bar, etc), but I can drag things from the side of the screen into it.



When I open the display options, it is set into "Single Display Mode", and I have to disconnect and reconnect one of my monitors to be able to change it back into "Join Displays mode"



To be more specific about my Setup:




  • Processor: Intel® Pentium(R) CPU G3240 @ 3.10GHz.

  • Graphics: Intel® Haswell Desktop.

  • Both monitors are plugged directly into my motherboard, one in DVI and
    the other on the VGA.

  • I've just istalled Ubuntu, so I don't know if it is specific from 18.10 or not.


Some command outputs that maybe helpful:
