Ubuntu : Could Not Apply The Stored Configuration For Monitors

In the last couple of days I got a message in ubuntu when I log into the machine saying,

"Could Not Apply The Stored Configuration For Monitors and blah blah blah...." 

And all my fonts and interfaces look ugly.

So I looked into the matter and found this thread.

The solution was quite simple.

  1. goto home folder 
  2. (press ctrl + h) and goto the folder .config 
  3. delete (or if you are not sure just rename) monitor.xml file
  4. restart (or just log out and log in will solve the matter I guess)
  5. enjoy.. :)
