[Bug 703363] [NEW] Dual monitor display does not work correctly

 

Public bug reported:

Before upgrading to maverick from lucid, I was able to run an extended
desktop across both the internal 1920x1080 monitor and an external
1920x1080 monitor connected via HDMI.

Since upgrading, configuring this setup causes both monitors to drop
back into a lower resolution; at this point in time it is not possible
to drop back to a single monitor running at 1920x1080 unless the
propriety ATI drivers are un-installed and re-installed (with associated
reboots).
