Change the Monitor on which GDM is being displayed?

Since the update to 3.8, GDM starts on the other monitor. How can I get it back to where it used to be before?

Disconnect the monitors and switch them so the current primary becomes the secondary and vice-versa !

I cannot do that. They use different connectors.

Set up the primary / secondary monitors as a normal user (Settings / Displays), then copy the users ~/.config/monitors.xml to ~gdm/.config/

Thanks. That might have done it. It is working now.
