Changed to gnome-system-monitor, as I think this is the component
driving the display settings changes (but I might be wrong)

** Package changed: ubuntu-settings (Ubuntu) => gnome-system-monitor
(Ubuntu)

Title:
  System stopped adjusting display settings when a new display is
  plugged in

Status in gnome-system-monitor package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Since I upgraded to wily (beta), my laptop stopped adjusting display
  settings when I dock or undock it (with an external display attached
  to the docking station), or even when I attached a new display
  directly on the laptop.

  Expected result: when I dock my laptop, the system recognizes the new
  configuration and applies the corresponding display settings

  Actual result: nothing happens
  For example, when docked, I have the laptop main display off, and the external monitor on. When I undock, the main display stays off, until I... (see below)

  To get the setting applied, I have to either:
  - open the System settings application. No need to change anything, nor to choose Display settings, simply opening the general settings app makes it work.
  - or: switch to console and back to X (ctrl+alt+F6 / Ctrl+F7)
