Probably I found a race condition for this bug: * without doing any mouse action (aside from moving it to move focus) the xrandr command will work fine and my desktop does behave as expected (after running it).
* Even clicking into a terminal (to get focus) does trigger this bug, e.g. after running xrandr I can NOT change virtual desktops and have to restart. * Starting any application with the mouse -before running xrandr successfully- may damage both, the desktop AND the application in a non-predictable manner. - So, please ignore the above hints about Thunderbird: It's not a Thunderbird problem but one with X / xrandr. Note: Starting laptop alone (without docking station and external monitor) will work fine without problems. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/736812 Title: Update to 10.04.2 LTS does make desktop instable -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
