[Desktop-packages] [Bug 995372] Re: switching external monitors impossible
We're closing this bug since there has not been a response from the original reporter. However, the issue still exists please feel free to reopen with the requested information. If you're not the original reporter, we'd prefer you file a new bug report. Some tips: * Report X.org bugs via the command: `ubuntu-bug xorg` * Test against the latest development Ubuntu. http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/ Bugs marked as affecting the development version tend to get priority attention. * The `xdiagnose` utility has functionality for enabling debugging and analyzing a few common X problems. * Tag your bugs with the Ubuntu versions you have reproduced the issue in. * See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Reporting for tips on writing good bug reports. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Expired -- 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/995372 Title: switching external monitors impossible Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: after upgrading to 12.04 I've encountered the following problem with gnome3 desktop: I have 2 screens for my laptop (dell xps502z), one at home and one at work. they have different resolutions, and both connected via the mini-displayPort socket (the hdmi socket on this dell doesn't work due to Nvidia Optimus crap).

I have removed the tag regression-update from this bug report as the tag should be used for a regression which happened when installing a package from the -updates repository. This tag is used by the Stable Release Updates team to watch for regressions in packages from -updates and inappropriate usage of this tag makes it harder to find this category of regression. Thanks for your understanding.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 995372] Re: switching external monitors impossible
This was working fine until Monday... today when I tried to login my configuration with two monitors will only show them as mirror and will not let me to set another way... here is the error message I get when I try to change it... GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: No such interface `org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.XRANDR_2' on object at path /org/gnome/SettingsDaemon/XRANDR -- 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/995372 Title: switching external monitors impossible Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: after upgrading to 12.04 I've encountered the following problem with gnome3 desktop: I have 2 screens for my laptop (dell xps502z), one at home and one at work. they have different resolutions, and both connected via the mini-displayPort socket (the hdmi socket on this dell doesn't work due to Nvidia Optimus crap). When moving from one monitor to the other, the monitor doesn't get a signal. Opening the display manager shows the screen blackened, and trying to enable it brings about the following error: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: No such interface `org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.XRANDR_2' on object at path /org/gnome/SettingsDaemon/XRANDR restarting X11 solves this, but of course means I have to exit any open window, and reconfigure my dual monitor layout each time. this was 100% fine in 11.10. this happens when moving from either screen to the other.
