Public bug reported:

I'm using Ubuntu Intrepid. I recently bought a new monitor to use with
my Laptop (Acer Aspire 1642WLMi with Intel graphics card), and I'm using
xrandr to switch to two monitors. The commands I use are:

xrandr --fb 1280x1824 --output LVDS --mode 1280x800 --output VGA --mode
1280x1024 --below LVDS --verbose

to turn the monitor on, and

xrandr --fb 1280x800 --output LVDS --mode 1280x800 --output VGA --off
--verbose

to turn it off. The problem is that when I turn the monitor off, I
return to the login screen, I'm assuming because X11 restarts. This
doesn't happen all the times, it usually doesn't work when I have been
working on a session for some time. Some errors I found in some logs:

/var/log/gdm/:0.log.2:
(EE) intel(0): underrun on pipe B!
Xorg: intel_context.c:1020: UNLOCK_HARDWARE: Assertion 
`intel->batch->cliprect_mode != REFERENCES_CLIPRECTS' failed.

/var/log/syslog:

I don't know what extra files are required, please let me know if you
need any extra information.
