I suspect that the following is happening: - lid close causes a (fake) fn-f8 keypress (display toggle on the Dell Latitude E6400, gsd calls it fn-f7), gsd reconfigures outputs (all outputs off) - lid open causes another (fake) fn-f8 keypress, gsd reconfigures outputs (LVDS on)
So, for one lid close and open, gsd should receive two (fake) fn-f8 keypresses and reconfigure the outputs each time. Unfortunately any keypress after a fn-f8 keypress will cause a duplicate fn-f8 keypress to appear (bug #535348), causing this: - lid close -> fake fn-f8 keypress, gsd reconfigures outputs - lid open -> fake fn-f8 keypress, which is causing a duplicate fn-f8 keypress to appear. gsd reconfigures outputs twice - if you hit any key at any time after you've opened the lid, this causes another duplicate fn-f8 keypress to appear. gsd reacts and again reconfigures outputs, causing the visual lag and flashing of icons. This is visible in the log I attached before, gsd claims to handle "fn-f7"-events four times. -- problems triggered when I open the laptop lid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/524830 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
