[Bug 1535123] [NEW] Touchscreen location incorrect after changing resolution using unity-control-center with dual-display setup

 

Public bug reported:

I have a touchscreen laptop with external display connected.  Both
support maximum resolution of 4k (3840x2160).  The laptop screen is on
the left, external display on the right.

After initial boot from daily xenial live cd 2016-01-17, both screens
are at the maximum resolution.  When I touch the laptop screen, the
cursor correctly shows my touch position.

Using unity-control-center, when I set the resolution of the laptop
display to 1920x1080, the screen blanks momentarily and apport reports
that Ubuntu has experienced an internal error.  The resolution reverts
to 3820x2160 on both screens.  I try again and the screen resolution
changes properly.  I submitted the report through apport several minutes
ago, but I don't know how to link it here and I'm not sure it's related.

After the resolution change, the laptop display on the left is 1920x1080
and the monitor display on the right is 3840x2160.  Touches on the left
are scaled to the entire width of the desktop, rather than under my
finger.

Reverting the resolution to 3840x2160 on both monitors through unity-
control-center, the touches are still scaled to the whole desktop.  In
other words, touches on the right side of the laptop display register on
the touchless monitor.

When I log out, the touches are correct on the login screen.  When I log
back in as the ubuntu user with both resolutions at 3820x2160, the touch
positions are correct.
