Or only the empty background of the second screen is shown on the external monitor while the primary screen is on the closed integrated notebook screen. This is the real issue. Why are the screen positions scrambled around although there should be a config from before shutdown/suspend (not the lidOpened one), that has the current positions stored. Apparently this one has the wrong positions saved as well. You could check this in your config files. > So they configure it again as needed, while the lid is closed.

I guess it's created automatically when the lid is open and a button on the OSD ("Extend to right" or so) is clicked. After closing the lid, this configuration is copied to "lidOpened". If between yesterday and in the morning they never opened the lid, there should still be a lidOpened-config from the last time yesterday they closed the lid. > The situation described in the test plan is just a quick way to show what can go wrong and if that is fixed.
