I have the same problem in x64 Ubuntu and Gnome. Since 12.10 display management absolutely doesn't work for me on new user accounts. Displays are rarely selectable and switching to some unspectacular configurations lead to graphical errors, black screen or logouts.
I use an ASUS Zenbook UX31A with DELL U2711 via HDMI. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1043769 Title: Monitor image not clickable in display settings after the first time Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Steps to reproduce: * Have a multi monitor setup with 2 monitors * Open the display settings applet in the control center * Click on the monitor that is not currently selected * Click on the monitor that was initially selected Expected result: * The second click should select again the clicked monitor Actual result: * The second click fails to select the clicked monitor, selection remains where it is If you focus another application and focus back to the display settings window, then you can move the selection again for one single time, then the bug appears again until you switch focus again.
