Apologies for the delay in replying. Here's a more exact description of the problem: 1) Try to use external monitor by plugging it in 2) Monitor gets enabled, but monitor layout is wrong 3) Open gnome-control center to the Displays section 4) Re-arrange monitors, hit "Apply" 5) Screens blink and flash for 5-10s, and end up back in the original (wrong) layout afterwards. I can't tell if it temporarily gets the right resolution or not.
I tried to run apport-collect, but I'm not sure it did anything: bhearsum@voot ~ % apport-collect 888134 Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module" Package gnome-desktop3 not installed and no hook available, ignoring -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/888134 Title: automatic detection of plugged in / removed monitor is too aggressive To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-desktop3/+bug/888134/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
