(Ubuntu 9.04) At work, I've got dual head, external monitors (VGA, TDMS-1). If I suspend there, and resume at home (using only built-in LVDS), I get a black screen.
I have similar problems when going in reverse. The only way I've been able to recover is via SSH and xrandr, however, my home => work xrandr process is haphazard. While I can usually get it to work, I can only get enough to give me a panel (on the wrong screen, the VGA) to get to the gnome display config gui (where I can finish the proper config, getting the panel on the main TDMS-1, and the auxiliary display on the smaller VGA). When I need to resume at home, I usually bag it, and just hard reset. I've got a few questions: 1. Is there a way to get X to roam better (be smarter about detecting and using displays on resume)? 2. Alternatively, is there some xrandr sequence I can use that makes the home => work transition less awkward? 3. Also, alternatively, what's the sequence for the work => home transition? (This one's a bit of a pain, because I've got to jump through some hoops to SSH in at home, but if I had a sequence, I could script it, and then maybe blindly run my script from a TTY.)
