[Bug 552624] Re: [GM45] Computer thinks 2nd monitor is connected when it's not

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  Occasionally, when I boot or I am using my computer, I am able to move
  my mouse pointer off far off of the screen onto a non-existent second
  monitor. If I open the display properties, the screen will flash and
  only one monitor is shown. If I click the Apply button, then the problem
  is fixed. However, the problem can sometimes, but not always, return
  when I play a video in Totem. I again have to go to display properties
  to fix it.
  
  I've also seen the problem when GDM appears. My screen will have the GDM
  background but no other GDM items. I notice that I can move my pointer
  far off the screen. The only recourse in this situation is to cut power
  and restart since I can't even shutdown or reboot.
