Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-applets

the method to select a screen and then to switch it on or off (or to change 
resolution) is based on clicking on the corresponding screen in dht display in 
the applet. this is not intuitive and could perhaps needs a sentence of 
explanation in the GUI.
the bug however is, that when one ticks the 'mirror screen' on then the two 
displays are shown as one and it is not possible to select one or the other 
from the gui. this is a bug in the gui that needs a fix (eg add a drop down 
list to select one or the other display, or similar).

thank you for a fine GUI!
