Bug Description

On MacBook Pro (2010) Ubuntu 20.4.1 LTS and 18.4.5 LTS recognizes a second interlinked screen which doesn't exist. This happens also in the Try mode when Ubuntu sill isn't installed and also after update. You can push the mousecurser from the left (2) to the right (1) screen or you can change in the screen in the settings. But then you can do nothing, because the setting window comes on that screen which doesn't esist. You even can not shutdown. If you set the computer to only one screen, the setting is reset to the former setting with the two screens. But mostly you can't confirm the setting because the screen turn black for more then 10 seconds. I found a workaround by starting the recovery version.
