I've installed the package and it fixes the issue! I used the original xrandr command I used to reproduce the issue as well as plugged in and out the external VGA connector. I also suspended my laptop and repeated the tests.
One note, the changelog should say [ Chris Wilson], instead of my name since he's the author of the patch. I merly produced the initial backport, and Bryce cleaned up and produced the final backport. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1157678 Title: [ffe] unplugging an external monitor from laptop results in corrupted screen.
