@Jonathan: I was on 15.10. :| The problem with 15.10 is the trackpad doesn't work due to a bug in the i2c driver (drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-platdrv.c) for kernels < 4.5. When I upgraded my kernel to version 4.5 I started getting this same external monitor issue.
Since 16.04 is using a 4.4 kernel and my trackpad works, I guess they patched it to fix the i2c driver bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1559308 Title: Plugging HDMI screen in causes system hang To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1559308/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
