It is my intention to remain on 12.04 for the foreseeable future and I currently have a fairly slow internet connection, so using a current version is infeasible.
I have noticed that this behavior appears to be cycling the video setup according to some pattern; e.g. switching to mirrored displays (I'm currently using 2 monitors), or swapping monitor placement. The results of this switching seem to be better-behaved recently and it seems like this may be a "feature" instead of a bug. I recall reading at some point that Microsoft had proposed automatically switching video display setups when the user presses the 'Windows' key and the 'P' key together, but have been unable to locate that information again. If this is a feature, is it possible to find some way to disable it? I have turned off every key binding I can find in the configuration (since I use emacs and these bindings generally cause problems) but this behavior remains. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1189577 Title: Holding down the Meta_L key and pressing the 'p' key wipes out the display To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/1189577/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
