You have been subscribed to a public bug: What is expected to happen is that with my computer turned off, when I plug in my external VGA monitor into my laptop for the first time, and boot up to the login screen, the display is in mirror mode and I can see the login screen on both the built-in screen, and external monitor.
What happens instead is that the login screen is only shown on the built-in screen.
