Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
Using gnome-display-properties, I configure my monitor setup to have the laptop screen on the left and the attached external monitor on the right. The external monitor does not receive a signal in this configuration. Repeated presses of Fn+F10 (this laptop's display hotkey) will cycle through five xrandr configurations, but none result in the desired side- by-side configuration. Occasionally, but not always, a mirror setup will work. It will usually work if I set the display configuration to side-by-side, close gnome- display-properties, and then cycle through the settings by pressing Fn+F10. Debug information attached.
