[Bug 583165] Re: [gm45] Ubuntu thinks two monitors are connected.

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  Dell Latitude E5500. Intel video. Ubuntu 10.04. At one point I connected
  a Dell 17" monitor and ran dual screen, by going to System - Preferences
  - Monitors. Well, the monitor is out of the picture now, and has been
  for the last week. However there's times I boot up and my login screen
  is missing. By curiosity, I moved my mouse to the right, and sure enough
  it disappeared instead of "hitting a wall", proving Ubuntu thinks
  there's a second monitor existent when there is not. This problem also
  messes around with my resolution as well, forcing me to change it back
  each time this happens. Out of about 10 power-ups, this happens anywhere
  from 2-4 times.
