While this is not a security issue, it is an issue which may cause hardware damage. Turning the monitor on and off 10+ times during a boot can't add health to the monitor itself.
This morning it took 3 failed attempts to boot up the computer. I thought perhaps manually turning off and on the monitor might help. It didn't. There is some loop in the boot code, at exactly the time where it presents the dialog which user to choose, which turned off again my manually turned on monitor. It will continue to audio click away, turning off and on the monitor. The end result is I can't use the computer. The only solution is to hardware turn off the computer itself and hope that maybe the next time around it just might catch itself in a good state without the endless loop when it is asking which user to choose. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1735976 Title: Problem with secondary monitor and DVD player To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1735976/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
