I'm just setting up a Dell Inspiron 7720 (17R SE) which is probably similar to yours. I haven't played with Nvidia drivers yet and everything is default install. My previous laptop was VGA out to the TV and I thought the new problems were related to Xorg and HDMI broken vs VGA working fine.
The bug I have is when going full screen for a video/flash player it always goes to the built-in display instead of the external TV which I want. In ask Ubuntu another user with this problem got the answer to virtually move the external display to the left and the built-in display to the right. I tried this and it successfully went full screen to the external TV. However if I type into Terminal or another window on the built-in display the external display drops out of full screen into normalized window size which I consider a bug of unknown origin yet. Having to virtually assign the external TV to the left panel and the built-in laptop display to the right panel is counter-intuitive to their real life positions and a pain for accessing the lanucher which now has to be activated with the super-key because the mouse just won't bump the hidden launcher properly without falling into the TV's window. What little I know is Intel HD4000 GPU and Nvidia 650GT GPU. Sandy- Bridge 3630QM quad core and mobo chipset family 77 supporting Intel Rapid Storage Technology to accelerate HDD to SDD (once I finish configuring dm-cache or bcache) mdadm is up and running to mimic Intel Raid-0 defined in OROM. UEFI is off and MBR / dospartitions are on. I'll falling this bug thread and see what develops. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1336994 Title: Panning and full screen window size broken when using HDMI port To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1336994/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
