I have the same problem with Lenovo X60. Changing monitor configuration when desktop effects are enables causes the display to freeze. I only get a black screen with a cursor that does not move. The only way to get out from this lock is to reboot the computer.
I can SSH to the machine, so other than the frozen display, things seem to be OK. I will add some logs. ** Attachment added: "dmesg.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/36929626/dmesg.txt -- [Karmic] Sony Vaio VGN-C260E laptop freezes when external monitor is plugged in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/462393 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
