Seems I was running 3.19 (to debug xorg gpu hangups). Now booted back to 3.18.0-13-generic and it still goes bonkers when I touch the display applet thing.

Usually sits in docking station with external monitor. Today I ran the laptop outside the docking station, and plugged it into the dock while running (which worked fine forever on utopic) but today it now freaks out. I deleted ~/.config/monitors.xml to reset my display config I restarted and logged in with both monitors active. As soon as I change the display config doing the display corrupts, flickers and becomes unusable.
