Bug Description
ubuntu jammy daily (canary build) live test on
- dell optiplex 960
(this is my primary machine; so is normally used for entry of data & not doing the QA-testing).
on adjusting the displays to match my setup (six displays; two high & three across; this box uses two in the middle with middle on top row & middle on bottom row).. the top display is still useable, but the bottom is not. This boxes are not perfectly aligned as not all my displays are the exact same size; so top display is slightly to right of bottom display
the bottom resembles a digital TV with bad signal, mostly blocky & parts of it flashing (very quickly). it doesn't match the attached picture (as viewable on this box anyway.. my top display; which was LEFT prior to alignment is perfectly readable).
** actual
my top display is usable, bottom is not (blocky warped picture)
** expected
on adjust displays to match my config; both displays remain usable & readable.
** notes
likely related to graphics card & not GNOME. If I recall correctly; this box has an older video card used as it had 2x DVI connections my screens use.
My usual install on this box is jammy; but I usually use LXQt/Lubuntu and I don't experience issues.. I also have installed Xubuntu/Xfce & Ubuntu/GNOME so can test the installed OS (where I don't believe I have issue), but my install is somewhat old (artful install upgraded every six months ~30-36 hours after each release) thus is likely heavily modified.
** Picture comments
My top display is ~perfect (vertical white bar to left of ubuntu-dock-items I'd not expect, but the color-blocks to the left of the 'install/
My bottom display is nothing like picture; it's unusable. A mixture of black/white boxes with red/purple bits which would be the picture warped into blocky-components. When I type, I get reactions on this display with the picture changing (mostly the black & white portions which flash, the red/purple bits which are warped indri picture appear to remain static).
My phone/camera isn't working, but I've taken a photograph. I didn't anticipate issues in this QA-test (it's past 1AM now) otherwise I'd not have run this QA-test now.
** further comments
this is likely a duplicate... I experience this type of reaction on other boxes; likely radeon related but I've yet to look & can't even remember which video card exists in this box (I don't experience issues with the display configuration of the box with identical card to this, but it relates to display setup/config... my other box with this card is landscape+portrait I believe and doesn't have one display above the other; ie. d780; I get these issues when one display is above the other - and only with single orientation (swap top/bottom and issues don't exist))
