Public bug reported:
I add a custom mode for my monitor using xrandr at boot. It looks like
this:
xrandr --newmode "2560x1440R" 241.50 2560 2608 2640 2720 1440 1443 1448 1481
+hsync -vsync
xrandr --addmode HDMI-1 "2560x1440R"
xrandr --output HDMI-1 --mode "2560x1440R"
xrandr --output HDMI-1 --pos 0x0
xrandr --output eDP-1 --pos 2560x360
Starting recently, since I installed Ubuntu 18.04.2 (was using .1
before), even though the monitor isn't connected, that "space" is still
there. I can move my mouse out of my laptop screen and it goes over
where the monitor would be and gets lost. And screenshots (Print Screen)
captures a large blank space as if the monitor were connected.
As I said, this just started happening recently but I don't remember
exactly what update caused it. All I know is before I installed 18.04.2,
this didn't happen.
