[Desktop-packages] [Bug 988290] Re: Resolution change with KVM switch on Precise
My workaround for this was to uninstall the screen lock total uninstall , not just disabled.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 988290] Re: Resolution change with KVM switch on Precise
I worked around this by un-installing the screen saver. Given what appears to be the 'root cause' ... my guess would be the screen saver it provoking a 'poll' when it locks or unlocks the screen ... Given that this will probably happen when a KVM is switched 'away' for long periods , it would seem to be (at least) a BUG WRT the screen saver. In a Lab situation a KVM would be the norm ... having to remove the screen saver/locking on lab machines would make Ubuntu unsuitable for this kind of use on security grounds. Suggest yon don't close but reassign to screen saver. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/988290 Title: Resolution change with KVM switch on Precise Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I have a machine that shares monitor, keyboard and mouse with a second machine via a standard KVM-Switch (USB/VGA).
