    multiple"Display" configuration screens showing upon booting

    When I boot, the "Display" configuration shows up FIVE OF THEM,

    Running Xubuntu XFCE on an Asus 1005 netbook, dual booted with XP

    A few days ago I had it hooked to my TV with a RGB cable and was using the F8 key to use the TV as an external monitor, with limited success, and ever since have had this problem. I have to "close" them or hit the X to close each of them every time. Thanks in advance, digging out in NE Kansas

    Closing them all and rebooting doesn't help
    Nothing in Settings > Startup and Sessions seems to be the problem, but I don't understand the Sessions part, specifically the codes

    Re: multiple"Display" configuration screens showing upon booting

    For those who might find this thread for the same problem, I fixed the problem by going to:


    Settings Manager > Session and Startup > Application Autostart (or session)

    and changed something, can't remember exactly what, possibly unchecking XFCE settings helper, rebooting, and rechecking it. Or, under Session, going to XFCE4-panel, go the right and left click on whatever word is there, and changing it to "immediately". Thanks for the help, and hope this helps someone.
