Physical size of monitor incorrect in settings












0















I currently have a 27" Samsung SyncMaster P2770 as my primary, and a 23" Asus VH236H as my secondary. Going into Settings>Devices>Displays, it shows my primary as Samsung Electric Company 7" and my secondary as Ancor Communications Inc 24". In the display arrangement, it shows both monitors being the same size, even though that is obviously wrong. Attempting to move around the displays via that GUI also causes issues with getting the mouse to travel from one screen to the next. My video card is an AMD Radeon RX 470. Is there a way to get Ubuntu to register the screens as a correct size? Note that the resolution of the screens are fine.
