Xorg freeze

[Richard Skifton]

Upon booting the machine, and after login, the dual display is just 1 big display centered on the two monitors. There is no panal or launcher. The mouse is active, but there is nothing to click on.

If I boot with the VGA secondary display unplugged from the laptop, it will fully boot and everything will look as normal. If I then plug in the secondary monitor after fully booted in, the displays will adjust themselves and work. The only downfall to this is that windows will only maximize up to the size of the smaller screen (i.e. laptop's display). So the secondary monitor (22" Acer) is not utilized to its maximum capacity.

Richard Skifton, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xorg 1328149

Please ensure you have xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes button for attaching additional debugging information.

As well, given the information from the prior release is already available, testing a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.
