Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Using gnome-display-properties, I configure my monitor setup to have the
laptop screen on the left and the attached external monitor on the
right.

The external monitor does not receive a signal in this configuration.

Repeated presses of Fn+F10 (this laptop's display hotkey) will cycle
through five xrandr configurations, but none result in the desired side-
by-side configuration.

Occasionally, but not always, a mirror setup will work.  It will usually
work if I set the display configuration to side-by-side, close gnome-
display-properties, and then cycle through the settings by pressing
Fn+F10.

Debug information attached.
