A couple new facts: This time, when I started the machine with external monitor plugged in, the machine was unable to go beyond the mirrored screen setting. Any change resulted in a black screen with, apparently, the last column of what should be displayed in the built-in the LCD displayed as the first column of the built-in LCD. Mouse movement was OK and I was able to click on the indicator-session-applet and open the menu, but could not successfully click on the menu itself in order to restart X. Ctrl-Alt- Backspace didn't work either.
