Bug Description
I am running up to date (as of 15 Sept) Oneirc beta on a laptop with an external monitor. When booting with the monitor plugged in, I see the following:
- what appears to be the default greeter/sign in screen displayed correctly for a second or two
- a white flash
- that same sign in screen re-displayed but this time it is only in the top 2/3 of the laptop screen, with the bottom third of that screen blank.
It works (i.e., I can log in), but looks shoddy.
