Public bug reported: On Ubuntu 13.10 64 bits with an ATI/AMD Radeon HD 4650 Grahic card.
I just installed a projector at home on the HDMI port of my graphic card, the computer's screen staying on the DVI port. I discovered when I booted that, even if the projector is shut down (and energy turned off too) it's the primary screen for the computer. Result : Even if the projector isn't started, or even powered, every window appear on it, including the login screen (which is really a pain) What happened : My projector is the primary screen and everything appear on it even if shuted down. What I expected to happen : I expected my computer to stay the same, except when I start the projector : This one would become a second (not primary) screen.
