Title:
  Connecting an external monitor cause display corruption on my laptop.

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I was testing an external monitor on a laptop with Ubuntu 11.04, my
  display corrupts when I plug in the external monitor.

  This situation is:
  1. Zebra lines appear  (see attachment). 
  2. The content is not properly displayed (see attachment).
  3. When dragging a window move around that area will get it redraw, making it 
look fine, but the problem still exist.
  4. Using a different resolution setting does not help.

  Test case:
  1. Open the display configuration tool.
  2. Plug in the external monitor.
  3. Move a window around.
  4. Switch to another resolution setting, and move a window around.

  Attached screenshot was captured from the laptop during this happens.
