Same problem here. Attached external Monitors (different monitors and resolutions tested) through VGA or DP on my Notebook i experience problems with the mentioned screen placement. The above screen works perfectly as long as the cursor stays on that screen. Wen I move the cursor down to the built-in screen, the above monitor starts to scroll between the screens. I'm unable to move a window down to the built-in screen. Window-Title-Bar seems to hang at the bottom of the screen, also the rest of the window is shown on the other screen.
this short video demonstrates the problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Qlkpe2MpNk I once experienced this scrolling effect also horizontally (monitor to the right), but this happened only for a single screen session. Editing ~/.config/monitors.xml manually resulted in the same problem, also when screens were placed using xrandr. I also changed primary monitor (in monitors.xml) to the external one, but that had also no effect. Sidenote (may or may not be important): I'm using nvidia-prima, which enables me to switch between graphics cars. My System is a Lenovo Thinkpad T430 with two graphic cards a.k.a. nvidia optimus (DP wired to Nvidia 5400M and VGA wired to and Onboard Intel-Graphics Chip), problem happens on both ports. ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1312342 Title: dual monitor breaks when not config'd for builtin monitor is to the left of second monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1312342/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
