Public bug reported: I have a dual screen setup on my laptop. One is HIDPI and the other one is a classic external monitor over HDMI.
I've setup my screens the way I like it and they work fine as long as the computer doesn't look himself due to inactivity. As soon as this happens, gnome crashes and I have to log back in - sometimes 3-4 times before getting back to my desktop but with all prograns and windows closed.
