[Bug 1300914] Re: External screen undetected after first plug

 

You're right Peter: logging out to lightdm also works for me.

However quitting the GUI session is the real pain for me: it's very
often that I have two dozen windows spread over a few virtual screens,
everything arranged in just the right order. I just hate loosing this.
Rebooting only adds a few seconds after the SSD upgrade but I would
gladly wait a couple of minutes if I could save my GUI session.

Title:
  External screen undetected after first plug

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On Ubuntu 14.04, the external screen plugged on VGA is detected and get activated correctly.
  However, if I unplug it and then replug it later, it is not detected anymore and the screen receives no signal.

  A way to get it back to work is to reboot or simply suspend the
  computer.

  Sorry but I have no idea of what package is handling that.
