Title:
[Radeon HD 6290] xorg crashes when turning on external monitor
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
* Insert HDMI cable to external monitor
* Start Menu / Preferences / Monitor Settings
* Quick Options / Show the same screen on both laptop LCD and external monitor
X will freeze immediately, mouse is blocked, CTRL-ALT-F1 does not
respond, only direct hardware function keys (like screen brightness /
disable wifi) respond. The only solution is to hard reset the computer
by holding the power button down for 4 seconds.
