Seems to be fixed, I hadn't had this issue for some time now currently using the 3.13.0-58-generic kernel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-lts-trusty in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1453354 Title: Erratic VGA device appears connected on Thinkpad T420s Status in linux-lts-trusty package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Just updated to 3.13.0-52-generic kernel, the screen switches resolution after every login. This is caused by a clone view mode that is enabled by the fact that an "Unknown" display device is considered to be connected to the VGA1 output, despite nothing is connected at all! xrandr says: Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2624 x 900, maximum 8192 x 8192 LVDS1 connected 1600x900+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 310mm x 174mm 1600x900 60.0*+ 1440x900 59.9 1360x768 59.8 60.0 1152x864 60.0 1024x768 60.0 800x600 60.3 56.2 640x480 59.9 VGA1 connected 1024x768+1600+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm 1024x768 60.0* 800x600 60.3 56.2 848x480 60.0 640x480 59.9 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: linux-image-3.13.0-52-generic 3.13.0-52.86~precise1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-52.86~precise1-generic 3.13.11-ckt18 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-52-generic x86_64 AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version k3.13.0-52-generic.
