[Bug 888134] [NEW] automatic detection of plugged in / removed monitor is too aggressive

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I've found that the monitor detection in Ubuntu 11.10 is too aggressive. Sometimes it will get things wrong, and when I try to fix it with the GNOME Control Center, it automatically reverts back to what it thinks is correct. My configuration is as follows:
* Nouveau Driver
* GDM
* Awesome WM

The problem occurs with both the VGA and DVI ports. I can use xrandr to
make changes without them getting reverted.
