This situation should no longer be easy to trigger - as a workaround for Oneiric we've disallowed setting a broken setup in gnome-desktop's RANDR code (see bug #824099).
Users could still manually set a broken mode with the xrandr commandline tool, but GNOME should no longer automatically set a broken mode, and will not allow the GUI tools to set a broken mode. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/830949 Title: [Intel N10 Graphics] Plugging in external monitor to VGA port makes both displays corrupted with thick slanted lines To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/830949/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
