Yeah, sorry I was meaning to tell you but never caught you on IRC... I noticed Xmir does modify the display config, but only to implement DPMS. That's legacy code from the days when Xmir was full screen. Although full screen mode is also the default mode. So I'm wondering if we need to make the behaviour conditional rather than delete the feature. It should be disabled in windowed and rootless modes...
It is actually valid for apps to be able to change the power mode of the display. mirout in Mir 0.26.0 has such an option. But I agree it's bad for apps to do it unexpectedly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1521403 Title: Unity8 crashes on suspend/standby with SIGSEGV in Screen::makeCurrent (./src/platforms/mirserver/screen.cpp:406) Status in Canonical System Image: New Status in qtmir package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: The Ubuntu Error Tracker has been receiving reports about a problem regarding unity8.
