I have a very similar issue, but on Acer Aspire 3820TG-7360 with Intel
builtin i3-370M and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650. However, in my case the
two displays are both called "Built-in Display". And my xrandr -q output
shows that the first is LVDS1 while the second is LVDS-1-1 (see below).
This was an issue during the installation as well and made it difficult
to install (I had to reboot several times) because the installation
dialogue occasionally appeared offscreen on the non-existant display,
rather than the actual display (as seen by screen tearing and using Alt-
Tab). Attaching an external monitor merely adds a third display. This
renders my installation unstable as often my laptop screen goes is blank
at the login screen, (although I can hear the login music) or there seem
to be two, overlapping login screens. Once logged in, I can mirror the
displays to prevent windows opening in the non-existant display, but
graphics are slow and tearing.
The fix above did not help.
Should I open a new bug report? Or is this simialr enough to be
considered the same? I'm happy to provide any more information that
could help.
Thanks
