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.
