Rogan (and anyone else having this problem):
Just to follow up on what Daniel said, the best thing to do will be to:
1.) Run 'lspci | grep VGA' in the terminal and note it's result
2.) Run 'ubuntu-bug unity' - make sure to tell the bug reporting wizard the
problem is graphical
3.) In the summary
Hi Rogan,
I understand your frustration with the bug process and am sorry that it
seems arbitrary and possibly unfair to you. However I'd like to ask for
your understanding too, in that the Ubuntu project has limited
resources, and the process is in place to make sure those resources are
used as e
Sam, that's all well and good (and an inherent part of software
development...), however; If you folks feel the need to close the bug
for internal bookkeeping / organization / spring cleaning / warm fuzzies
/ whatever-you-want, then it would be damned spiffy if you could also

We're getting mixed signals from users. Some users are running custom
code, some aren't, there are many different hardware combinations and
combinations of compiz and unity packages at play here, some people
are saying that they get this issue, some aren't.
What David is trying to say here is that
I still have major issues with this myself. They closed the ticket, but
where are all those tickets tracking the "remaining" issues? Or do they
hope we'll open new tickets again in a constant battle with them? I
don't want to appear negative or anything, but I'm just disappointed.

So, has this fix been deployed?
I updated after David Barth's comment and still frequently have display

Based on #62, I will mark this bug closed. The certification issue is
resolved and the rest of the issues will be tracked in separate bugs,
mostly driver related problems that are outside of the Unity scope.

Adding to Andreic's comment:
* Vertical orientations often seem overlooked, specifically, the unity
top bar is drawn over top of full-screen windows on the lower display.
(This hides all the tabs in chrome, for example.)
* Windows show up in wildly unpredictable locations when
adding/removing
I'll second Ben Romer's observation. It seems to have gotten better, but
it's a long way from smooth functioning.
I hope I won't come across as unhelpful (by not providing specific
details), but a testing routine should be pretty simple:
* Plug & unplug the external monitor & make sure everything
You can add Asus EeePC 1001 to the list. Plugging in an external monitor
creates either (a) a secondary monitor displaying only a top panel, (b)
a secondary monitor displaying nothing with blocks of black on the
primary (netbook) screen. Changing resolution makes no difference.
Having the external
Same behavior as described in #66.
Besides I could not set primary display via the Monitor Preferences. I tried to
order the monitors in every way but unity dock is staying on the the laptop lcd.
In some configuration the external monitor is having corrupted screen - color
is invalid or monitor
Updated today and this seems to have *partially* fixed my screen
corruption problem. Now I can enable and disable the external monitor
successfully, but if I disable the laptop panel with the external
monitor enabled, they both go black and recovering requires killing X.

Aaron: I think you are correct - A new bug would be a good idea.

Title:

To manage notification
A dozen brief hibernate/resume exercises later, I have the distinct
impression that the only problematic case is hibernating with the
external display connected and then trying to resume without it. Perhaps
that is specific enough to want its own bug report?

installed 3.8.16 on my Inspiron 1545. Based on my impressions so far I
am afraid I will probably be bumping back down to 3.8.10 in the near
future.

Switched to 11.04 a.k.a. the »NUTTY narwhal« a few days ago. So there is
nothing installed except the available updates and pidgin.
And I agree with Dahaniel: this bug is a total showstopper
it renders natty useless for use with mobile hardware.
