.bashrc is intended for bash, your login shell, which runs on every login,
not really what you want for commands designed to be run only for X. Did
you try putting it in ~/.xinitrc (which isn't necessary by default)?

I put the xrandr command in my /home/lynn/.bashrc file

Is there a global system wide file which does the same for all users?

I put global xrandr commands in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc. No one's told me a
better place when I've asked about problems with xrandr commands used
there. It seems when you have multiple xrandr commands, order of execution
is important, as well as order of command line parameters, which can make
getting configured quite confusing and frustrating.
Thanks for clarify this, I put it there after finding it put there in nvnew
