[Impact] * Booting laptop in docking station with lid closed results in low resolution (1024x768) on external monitor * Machine uses Mirror-Mode when booting even when laptop lid is closed * Low resolution desktop (1024x768) when user logs in, must be manually set to optimal resolution for external montior * Customer is preparing rollout to many non-technical users. Manually setting resolution should not be required.
[Test Case] Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot system in docking station with lid closed 2. Login screen is shown at 1024x768 After login, user desktop is still 1024x768 Manually setting resolution to optimal is successful [Regression Potential] * I dont see any regression potential here, except for the user to end up auto configured optimal setup as seen in upstream code. * This may break display setup on really broken display drivers ( worst case/lid closed detection fails), in which we need to fix the bug with kernel/xorg . ** Patch added: "proposed patch for raring" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1065979/+attachment/3496575/+files/lid-close-raring.debdiff ** Tags removed: amd64 apport-bug compiz-0.9 running-unity ubuntu ** Tags added: precise raring -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1065979 Title: external/internal monitors mirrored on boot when laptop lid is closed Status in Gnome Settings Daemon: Fix Released Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” source package in Oneiric: Won't Fix Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” source package in Precise: Won't Fix Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” source package in Quantal: Won't Fix Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” source package in s-series: Fix Committed Bug description: If I put my X220 in a dock, and plug in an external monitor. Then I close the lid and turn on the computer, the computer will boot up with both the internal laptop screen and external monitor on and mirror. Because I can't see the laptop screen, I would expect the external monitor to be only on at its maximum resolution. I've actually tried this without the dock by plugging in an external monitor to my laptop and shutting the lid during boot quickly, the same problem persists. This problem is exhibited on Precise/Oneiric as well as Quantal. In particular this specification mentions this behavior: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Blueprints/MultiMonitor In this user story: """Alan goes to the office, puts his laptop with the lid closed into a docking station and boots it up. The external display should be run at its native resolution. Later that day he needs to see a customer. He suspends the laptop and takes it out of the docking station. At the customer he wakes up the laptop and the internal screen is used at its native resolution. Finishing his visit the laptop is suspended, brought back to the office. There it is placed in the docking station, woken up and the external display should run again at its native resolution."""
