With up to date maverick, it seems the situation may have improved slightly. Now when try to turn off one of the screens, the screen is unusable (if turn off monitor, laptop screen is solid whitish/gray; if turn off laptop, monitor is black with pulsing gray lines), but the mouse cursor is visible and the monitor preferences applications times out after 30 seconds, returning me to mirror mode. It is possible I was too hasty in my initial report in not waiting 30 seconds-- I don't recall.
I used the 'apport-collect 613628' after trying to turn off the monitor, having it go back to mirror mode automatically after 30 seconds, then trying to turn off the laptop and having it go back to mirror mode automatically after 30 seconds. Marking back to 'New' since I provided the requested information. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- crash when turning off screen with xrandr https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/613628 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
