Title:
  An "Unknown" display appears with no external display connected on
  12.04.5

Status in HWE Next:
  Confirmed
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  CID: 201202-10511 Dell Inspiron 5420

  After boot to desktop, there will be an "Unknown" display work as an
  extended display on this system with 12.04.5

  The problem with this issue is that you will be able to move the
  cursor out of your screen, even open an application on the extended
  display.

  Steps:
  1. Install 12.04.5, boot to desktop with no external monitor connected
  2. Open the "Display" utility, check whether there is an "Unknown" display

  Expected result:
  * There should be only a "Laptop" display

  Actual result:
  * An "Unknown" display available
