to me it looks like Linux Lite lacks the ability to save preferences of a dual monitor setup...

I have an old Radeon 9600, and i guess community drivers are installed. I can set up my monitors now pretty fine, since i exchanged one of them to a more standard device, but every time I boot up again, it seems that X has forgot what settings i already have done.

should i try to delete a formerly created Xorg.conf?
I created one before, because like I already mentioned; I tried to set up another monitor which is now in screwdriver heaven and for this old monitor i tried to create an xorg.conf because the max. resolution of that device didnt show up in "Monitor Settings"... I had to play the Xrandr game everytime...

Could somebody please help me? Or create a non-terminal solution which really saves monitor settings and also makes custom resolutions available that are within the bounds of technical possibility?
