[Bug 1426751] Re: Ubuntu-desktop not working when suspend/resume or connecting an external monitor -after upgrade this week (14.04)

 

On thing is worth mentioning: if I disable all the Compiz effects,
plugging or unplugging an external monitor does not turn the desktop and
windows unresponsive, but unity panel and launcher, and also window
decoration (with the close and minimize buttons) disappear. Does this
give any clue? (particularly taking into account that Compiz was
upgraded last week, when the problem started).

Title:
  Ubuntu-desktop not working when suspend/resume or connecting an
  external monitor -after upgrade this week (14.04)

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I was happily using 14.04 with my Lenovo Y50. When I installed it, I
  had some troubles making my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M 2GB works with
  hardware acceleration, etc, but at the end everything was OK.

  THIS WEEK (around 02/25/2015) an update destroyed this beautiful
  equilibrium: I can't resume after suspend and I can't plug or unplug
  my external monitor without having a weird problem:

  a) Desktop "moves" half of it size to the right.

  b) Mouse works, but I can't click on anything. The only workaround is
  killing the Xorg, and loosing the session.

  What I tried, without success:

  1) Downgrade Compiz (the first suspect, it was upgraded this week).
  Nothing.

  2) Install ALL possible NVIDIA drivers:

  2.a) Nouveau

  2.b) Nvidia 304 & Nvidia 304 updates (blacklisting and purging
  nouveau)

  2.c) Nvidia 331 & Nvidia 331 updates (both from repository and NVidea
  website). (blacklisting and purging nouveau)

  2.d) Nvidia 340 (from Xorg-edgers ppa). (blacklisting and purging
  nouveau)

  2.e) In every case, I purged previous drivers before, reconfigure
  Xorg, etc, etc,etc.

  3) Reinstalling Unity and Ubuntu-desktop

  I honestly don't know what else to do, but this situation it's very
  annoying.

  Any ideas? Please?
