First my setup:

xrandr output:

xorg "virtual screen"

My Left Monitor is DVI-1
My Right Monitor is DVI-0
I like to have a portrait view on my left monitor and a landscape view on my right monitor.
Previously I used to run this script to arrange my monitors:
xrandr --ouput DVI-0 --mode 1920x1200 --pos 1080x0 --rotate normal --output DVI-1 --mode 1680x1050 --pos 0x0 --rotate left
After I updated to xorg 1.6 and randr 1.3 my settings were screwed up. Badly.
So I disabled my monitor script and started to experiment.
4 hours later ....
I was getting so frustrated that I was seriously considering moving to crunchbang. But I stuck with it.
Finally I figured out that I cannot call all of the commands that I want at one time.
What I mean is this works:
xrandr --output DVI-0 --rotate normal --mode 1920x1200
xrandr --output DVI-1 --rotate left --pos 0x0
xrandr --output DVI-0 --pos 1055x0
This does not work:
xrandr --output DVI-0 --rotate normal --mode 1920x1200 --pos 1055x0 --output DVI-1 --rotate left --pos 0x0
Was this a bug in randr 1.2 or is it a regression in randr 1.3?
