[Bug 1295267] Re: Windows change Monitor/Desktop after screen lock

 

Looking at the /var/log/Xorg.0.log, it appears that the Iiyama screen is
considered disconnected on standby - and the reconnect causes a relayout
of the desktop.

I wonder if it's possible to simply suppress or ignore those hotplug
events (?)

This is the output in the /var/log/Xorg.0.log on a standby cycle:

  Windows change Monitor/Desktop after screen lock

Bug description:
  I run a dual monitor configuration, with one portrait and one
  landscape.

  I nearly always have multiple applications open in multiple windows
  across both monitors and all virtual desktops.

  When I lock the screen and then unlock, my application windows will
  move from their original position.

  Sometimes they are in completely random positions;

  Other times they seem to get the monitors confused, and rather than
  being in the top half of the portrait monitor they are on the top half
  of the landscape monitor;

  Sometimes it is only a new desktop, but the monitor position is the
  same;

  Sometimes it is the same desktop, but on the other monitor.

  Description:	Ubuntu 13.10
  Release:	13.10

  What I expect to happen: When I unlock my computer, all the windows
  are in the same position on the same monitor and desktop as I left
  them.

  What actually happens: When I unlock my computer, some or all of the
  windows have been changed to a random position on a random monitor
  and/or desktop.
