Public bug reported:
To shut off my laptop screen and adjust resolution on my external screen I
execute
xrandr --output VGA1 --off
xrandr --output LVDS1 --off
xrandr --output VGA1 --auto
and recently (2-3 weeks) this has made all desktop icons to dissapear from
screen.
At one time I thought I had a workaround by
ln -s ~/Skrivbord ~/Desktop
which is my localized name of Desktop, but it only worked the first time.
I find no logs with hints, currently I only know of one way of getting the
icons back which is reboot. Adjusting resolution or turning on laptopmonitor
has no effect.
