I'm not sure if I'm in the right place, but on my T61 + docking station I have an issue with desktop files/folders not being displayed correctly. With either VGA or DVI, everything works great but the files/folders in the Desktop/ folder are not constrained to the viewable area. They remain on the laptop monitor (can be dragged to the external monitor) but they are off the screen. "Organize Desktop by Name" has the same result.
So, it seems that the area allocated to icons is bigger than the actual display. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/745112 Title: [arrandale] desktop is messed up with external monitors (x86_64) Status in X.org xf86-video-intel: Fix Released Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” source package in Natty: Invalid Status in “linux” source package in Precise: Triaged Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” source package in Precise: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: unity (I'm not sure where in the stack this problem really is, so I'm guessing and picking on unity) I have a Lenovo T410s laptop with Intel graphics and I use it with a dock with two 1920x1200 monitors connected. I'm running up-to-date Natty. If I boot the laptop with it already docked, everything works perfectly: the two external monitors are used and I get a nice unity desktop spanning my 3840x1200 space. However, if I boot with the laptop undocked, log in, and then dock the laptop, it breaks pretty badly. Only one monitor is lit up, and I just get a black screen with a mouse pointer there -- no desktop background, windows, toolbars, or anything. Once it's in this state, it doesn't seem possible to recover -- if I undock the laptop again, the internal screen just stays black with a pointer. When the laptop is in a working state, undocking it sort of works... the desktop switches to the laptop screen, but then redocking it acts just like docking as described above.
