Public bug reported:

Hi,

I have an Asus X202E laptop, with  i3-2365M  CPU and iGPU. I find that
the display switching between integrated and external displays no longer
works.

Steps to reproduce:

* Boot laptop without extenal display attached.
* Log in.
* Connect external, powered-on display to HDMI port
* Press fn-F8

Expected behaviour:
* Repeated presses of fn-F8  cycles through (in some order I forget):
 - internal display only
 - internal display mirrored to external at internal's resolution
 - external display only, at internal's resolution
 - desktop extended from internal to external
 - external only at external's resolution 

This was the observed and desired behaviour up until a few months ago,
before the problem manifested

Current observed behaviour:
* Internal display mirrored to external at internal's resolution
* Mouse motion continue to work, mouse click input ignored
* Further presses of fn-F8 are ignored.
