I just made a clean installation of Ubuntu 18.04 and I am facing issues with dual monitors.



I have a desktop with Intel® Xeon(R) CPU E5-1660 v4 processor and 64GB RAM. I have two monitors, both are Dell 24".



When I turn the computer on, both the monitors are detected and I can see the BIOS screen on both of them. When the login screen is about to be displayed, one of the monitors turns off and does not recover. To make things worse, the monitor that turns off is detected as the primary.



Even when I connect this monitor after the computer is turned on, it does not automatically start to function. It works only if I go to the display settings, change the display mode to "Mirror" and back to "Join Displays".



Driver:
