Public bug reported:
Specific behavior:
When I "wake up" my computer (it is not in "Suspend", just "sleeping"),
and both screens awaken, they are _effectively_ mirrored. I log in (see
all display and inputs identically on both screens), open `nvidia-
settings`, and go to "X Server Display Configuration". It appears to
only display one screen. However, if I grab that screen and drag it to
the right, it is revealed that the second display has just been set to
sit atop the first display. Once I re-place the second screen to the
right of the first, and click "Apply", things are fine until next time.
My screens are "Dell Display 24"s (DELL P2419HC) and are identical. One
is connected via Display Port and the other is connected via HDMI. They
are set to 1920x1080. I'm running NVidia drivers 470.129.06 on an NVidia
GeForce GTX 960.
If I merely lock the screen (Super + L), it _does_ lock the screen and
shut the screens off, and I have to sign back in, but this does _not_
reproduce the bug.
The buggy behavior consistently happens when the screens shut off on
their own after a period of time (presumably from power saving or an
idle timeout). The displays are shut off at the OS level, and then the
screens themselves (getting no signal) go to sleep.
** Affects: nvidia-settings (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
