I am using a fresh install of Karmic Alpha 5 updated to Sept. 10.
Switching between 2 displays works fine when I use System / Preferences
/ Display.
However, when I use a command such as
xrandr --output VGA1 --off ; xrandr --output LVDS1 --preferred
the bottom gnome panel will change 'Orientation' to 'Top'. I can always
reset 'Orientation' to 'Bottom', but the problem is always repeatable
using xrandr.
The problem occurs regardless of whether I switch from LVDS1 to VGA1 or
vice versa. I never had this problem in Intrepid.
Some additional testing: If I switch the laptop lcd off and then back
on (xrandr --output LVDS1 --off ; xrandr --output LVDS1 --preferred), I
get the same results.
