Chromium doesn't want to show, after unplug, and later plug in to second screen.

[NoBugs!]

I had Chromium working on double screen set up, seemed fine except for some odd resizing behavior, and sometimes freezing like Chrome often does.

Then I unplugged, closed the lid, later opened and connected laptop to screen, but noticed there was no Chromium in super+w window list, but there were Chromium windows in alt-tab list.

Although I could alt-tab to Chromium windows, see the previews in the Ubuntu alt-tab's preview, I saw no window when switching to it. Finally, alt+space and maximize showed the window, but the outer chrome was still invisible for a while. Same for other Chromium windows. All other windows were fine.

NoBugs!,

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu and Chromium since that time. Your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates.

It would help us a lot if you could test on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running only once in a terminal:

apport-collect 1346753

and add any additional information that you think relevant. Alternatively, please confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the report. If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately two months time.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.
