"Thinkpad X220 running vivid up to date.

Usually sits in docking station with external monitor.

Today I ran the laptop outside the docking station, and plugged it into
the dock while running (which worked fine forever on utopic) but today
it now freaks out.

I deleted ~/.config/monitors.xml to reset my display config

I restarted and logged in with both monitors active.

As soon as I change the display config doing the display corrupts,
flickers and becomes unusable.
