Question:

Not sure if I am "affected" by this bug ... I am using a Lenovo W510 with nvidia graphics.
After upgrading to 11.10 I figured at some point, that I cant undock my laptop any more.
Earlier on, the laptop would simply switch to the internal display - but with unity/11.10 ...
the xserver (nvida driver) is crashing.

I followed the advice of a coworker - when running unity2D the problem isnt there;
I can (un)dock without any xserver crashes.

I found this bug entry here; saw it says "fixed"; so I added the ubuntu-desktop ppa
and upgraded to unity 4.28 - rebooted; but unfortunately xserver is still crashing upon undock.
