Public bug reported:
Ever since the DisplayPort on my laptop suffered a hardware failure,
`mate-display-properties` has hung on startup. My window manager
(xmonad) tells me it is repeatedly creating windows that don't show up
on the screen. I have removed `monitors.xml` on the chance that it
contained garbage after the hardware failure, but it has not been re-
created since.
Additionally, if I use `dconf-editor` to enable the monitors indicator
applet, it is not displayed either then or after a logout or reboot.
This suggests to me that whatever information source `mate-display-
applet` is trying to contact is not running or not running correctly.
The initial failure was on 22.04 LTS. I was hoping that 24.04 would
improve things, but it still hangs on startup.
