Title:
  Compiz on Ubuntu Mate 15.04 fails on DELL XPS 13 (9343) with external
  monitor

Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The DELL XPS13 (9343) came with Ubuntu 14.04 factory preinstalled. But
  it has too many bugs to be useful. In the meantime I have upgraded to
  Ubuntu Mate 15.04 (Vivid) with kernel 3.19.0-18-generic.

  The laptop has only a Mini-Displayport connector. So I use an adapter
  for VGA and HDMI, a no-name 3-in-1, model# 27391 from German company
  CSL.

  When the window-manager is  "Marco (Simple desktop effects)" then I do
  get a connection to an external monitor as it should be. However,
  Using Marco results in a failure when resuming from suspend. (see bug
  report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1454651)

  When I use the window-manager "Compiz (Advanced GPU accelerated
  desktop effects)" I get a proper resume from suspend, but connecting
  an external monitor results in a black screen on both the internal and
  external monitor. I can still see the mouse pointer moving across both
  screens, but no desktop, no menus or anything clickable. Same problem
  for both an external VGA or an external HDMI connection. Sometimes I
  do get a picture on the external monitor, but with a few blank spots,
  and everything is frozen, nothing can be clicked.

  Switching to a terminal by CTRL-ALT-F1 still works, and gives a
  terminal on the internal monitor.

  So currently I can either have a working suspend, or a working external monitor, but not both.
