Title:
  [GM965] dual monitor display not working after login in Xorg sessions
  (but Wayland works)

Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Results from a clean install of 20.04 with a forced update.

  When my system boots, the system comes up in dual monitor status
  (separated monitors).  Once I log into my account the system reverts
  to a single monitor mode and the second monitor goes blank.  If I
  attempt to change the display to dual monitors, both monitors are
  shown and defined correctly in the setup window (Built-in Laptop
  Monitor and HP 24").  However, once I click on apply, the system tries
  to reset to dual monitor, I would say several times, but fails and
  second monitor says that no signal is detected and to check the
  connection or cable.

  However, if I run Ubuntu (older version) from a thumb drive I have no
  problem with the dual monitor.

  I believe I am running the default video driver.
