[Bug 1189577] Re: Holding down the Meta_L key and pressing the 'p' key wipes out the display
vulgar, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-input-evdev REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

[Bug 1189577] Re: Holding down the Meta_L key and pressing the 'p' key wipes out the display
It is my intention to remain on 12.04 for the foreseeable future and I currently have a fairly slow internet connection, so using a current version is infeasible. I have noticed that this behavior appears to be cycling the video setup according to some pattern; e.g. switching to mirrored displays (I'm currently using 2 monitors), or swapping monitor placement. The results of this switching seem to be better-behaved recently and it seems like this may be a feature instead of a bug. I recall reading at some point that Microsoft had proposed automatically switching video display setups when the user presses the 'Windows' key and the 'P' key together, but have been unable to locate that information again. If this is a feature, is it possible to find some way to disable it? I have turned off every key binding I can find in the configuration (since I use emacs and these bindings generally cause problems) but this behavior remains. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1189577 Title: Holding down the Meta_L key and pressing the 'p' key wipes out the display To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/1189577/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
