Comment 140 for bug 898390

For me this bug isn't solved. Pressing the button "Save as Default" indeed does save the settings, but this is no solution for me. At work I use a docking station and connect my laptop to an external monitor. The laptop's lid is closed, so I want the laptop screen switched off and the external monitor set to its maximum resolution. At home and when travelling I use the laptop screen. If I save the work configuration as default, I get a black screen when I start the laptop at home. With Unity, Gnome Shell and XFCE, the system automatically checks whether an external monitor is connected or not, and adjusts the display settings accordingly. Only KDE (4.9.2 on Kubuntu 12.04.1) does not do that. However, you could argue that that is a different bug from the one reported here, I suppose.
