Public bug reported: Setup & problem:
Laptop in docking station, external monitor connected via DisplayLink to the docking station Start the laptop with the lid closed as normal behaviour. External monitor works OK. Then I need a second screen so I open up the lid on the laptop. External monitor set to primary incl launcher. Then launcher is on external but desktop icons + all windows I had open is on secondary/laptop screen. I do not have this problem when I add a secondary screen via VGA directly to the laptop. It becomes secondary but is completely empty except for top panel. (uncertain if this is xorg problem or unity problem (or something else?))
