Title: systemsettings > Display Configuration shows bogus monitor Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Starting from Kubuntu 14.04, when I open systemsettings > Monitor > Display Configuration, I see, additionally to my built-in monitor on my laptop (Samsung RF511 - monitor displayed as "Seiko Epson Corporation"...) an additional screen named "VGA-1-2" - which is enabled. This "monitor" is detected despite it does not exist. I discovered that because some apps I started did not appear on screen, and the mouse cursor somehow "vanished" behind the right screen edge, until I found out that they were placed on that second screen - I could "drag" the windows per Alt+LeftClick blindly from somewhere in the right to my actual monitor. a screnshot of systemsettings is attached. Then I attached a *real* second monitor to my laptop - systemsettings detects it correctly and expands the screen - but now tells me that I have *three* monitors... This is really a regression to 13.10, and as the monitor is detected *and* enabled by default, it is not really good to work with, as windows are "vanishing" somwehere. I can reproduce this behaviour with a Kubuntu live ISO on my system. So it is NOT my misconfiguration ;-) I before had Kubuntu 13.10 with KDE 4.12.5, running well without this bug.
