Public bug reported:

I am working with Xubuntu 12.04 on a MacBook Air 4,1. When I attach an external 
monitor via VGA and use Super (key) + P, I can select whether the notebook 
display
 is mirrored or only the notbook display is used as output or only the external
 monitor. I would expect the same behavior when plugging in a projector. If I 
do so,
 I see the projector on Super + P as one of the options to choose, but when I
 choose it, the projector remains black, no output is generated.

I figured out that I can use Applications Menu -> Settings -> Settings Manager
-> Display and click the "use this output" option for the projector to get the
projector to mirror the notebook display. However, I'm pretty sure that *not*
being able to do that on Super + P is a bug. I would expect this option to be
activated when I choose the projector on Super + P.
