** Description changed: + [Impact] + + Users with multiple displays are unable to change display settings + (arrange displays, change resolutions, change the primary display, etc.) + with 'gnome-control-center display' unless they happen to know to switch + focus to another window and switch back again between every mouse click. + + [Test Case] + + 1. Have a multi monitor setup with 2 (or more) monitors + 2. Open the display settings applet in the control center + 3. Click on the monitor that is not currently selected + 4. Try to select the originally selected monitor by clicking on it + + [Regression Potential] + + The patches in the attached debdiffs are from the upstream git + repositories and are in the latest upstream releases. Raring has been + using these upstream releases for some time now; any regressions likely + would have showed up in Raring. + + That being said, the cairo change is potentially risky, as it alters + some low-level behaviors and many packages depend on cairo. The changes + to gnome-control-center are limited to the Displays panel; any + regressions should only affect that panel (and that panel is already + severely broken with multiple displays). + + [Original Bug Report] + Steps to reproduce: * Have a multi monitor setup with 2 monitors * Open the display settings applet in the control center * Click on the monitor that is not currently selected * Click on the monitor that was initially selected Expected result: * The second click should select again the clicked monitor Actual result: * The second click fails to select the clicked monitor, selection remains where it is If you focus another application and focus back to the display settings window, then you can move the selection again for one single time, then the bug appears again until you switch focus again.
