Yeah, it's checking to see if you have anything connected to the TV output. To do that, it needs to temporarily unplug the VGA. You can avoid this by ignoring the TV output Section "Monitor" Identifier "TV" Option "Ignore" "True" EndSection Section "Device" ... Option "monitor-TV" "TV" EndSection If your machine cannot ever have a TV adapter (even with a docking station), we can add a quirk to the driver to never look at the TV output. That requires the pci subsystem values (from lspci -n -v) to plug into the quirk table. -- Using Randr or Playing Video in Totem blanks screen for 2 seconds https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/134365 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
