Public bug reported:

I've just upgraded to 12.04 from 11.10, and now when I connect my
external monitor, either before or after login, my X session freezes up.
It also seems to stop <ctrl>-<alt>-<Fkey> from letting me switch to a
console.

I've attached an Xorg.log that shows me booting up with both monitors
attached, and then later me logging in, after which it happens.  I
observed the default wallpaper being stretched across both monitors,
then everthing freezes up.  The OS seems to stop responding to all
keypresses but I can still log in via SSH.  When I log in via SSH, X is
running at 100%.

I did an strace on the running X process, but it doesn't look very
useful.
