Public bug reported:
This is happening very frequently. I use dual external monitors with my
laptop. When the laptop battery has charged, I unplug the AC cable. This
results in both screens going black for a second or two and then
resuming. However, every so often, approximately 1 in 3 times, the
screen is frozen when it returns. I see the desktop but nothing is
clickable, the mouse moves but I cannot select anything.
Pressing CTRL + ALT + F1 and attempting to restart Unity, always fails,
although I do sometimes get the keyboard back (i.e. I can open a
terminal via the keyboard and enter commands, but the result is the same
- the desktop proper does not re-appear). The only solution is to kill
Xorg or a hard reset.
