When I logged in today, I got notification
The selected configuration for displays could not be applied
required virtual size does not fit available size: requested=(5760, 1080), minimum=(320, 200), maximum=(65535, 65535).

I did not knowingly adjust any display settings last session. Last week, I installed Ubuntu Mate 22.04 clean. I was able to configure my three 1920x1080 monitors correctly using the Displays application. Last session, I installed qemu and quickemu, then got a VM running using quickemu using a basic setup. I also performed apt update
and apt upgrade
. There were only 32 packages that needed to be upgraded (I don't know what packages those were) and I haven't installed many packages outside of a minimal install.
I installed ARandR and was able to configure my monitors correctly. I've exported the xrandr script and I could set it to execute at login but this feels like a poor workaround for something that was already working until this sessions. I'm not sure how to go about troubleshooting if it was qemu that borked things or those other packages I upgraded.
I'm an using x11 session.
edit
I searched around and found some old askubuntu posts that recommended deleting the ./config/monitors.xml
and rebooting. I tried this and was not successful.
