[Bug 992778] Re: Dual Monitor Freeze after changing Display Settings in ubuntu 12.04

 

Medya, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Bug description:
  I had 11.10 64bit, I upgraded to 12.04

  if I change the settings in the Display it will freeze .
  -  if I move the external monitor  to the left of laptop monitor , (or above it) it will freeze
   - if I try to turn of the laptop monitor ,so I only have my external monitor it will freeze again.

  the mouse wont move and I have to reset the computer by ALT PRINT K to
  come back to ubuntu

  dual monitor used to work fine in ubuntu 11.10 , is there any way to downgrade the Display program to the one in 11.10 ?
