http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=972101 Bug ID: 972101 Summary: Display messed up after undocking (from docking station) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.1 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME Assignee: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: hkuehnemund@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- setup: LEAP 42.1 with latest updates running GNOME. Laptop sitting in a docking station to which an external monitor connected via DVI. After installation of LEAP, the "GNOME logon screen" is shown on the laptop monitor and the external one is a display extension positioned to the right side of the laptop monitor. After logon the display settings are now changed to: - disable laptop monitor - make external monitor the primary display So now the GNOME desktop is only shown on the external monitor, because this is the screen I'm using (laptop lid is open, but I do not use the display). issue 1: when logging of, the password prompt is suddenly shown on the laptop monitor again - although the display has been disabled. expected result: when laptop display is disabled within the GNOME session I expect that gdm is following this policy as well. (FYI, Windows does it this way for years already). issue 2: when undocking (while primary display is the external monitor and the laptop monitor is disabled), there is no automatic switch over to the laptop monitor - it stays dark. It is necessary to navigate to a console, issue init 3 and then init 5 again. This is a major bummer, as applications are closed (e.g. Windows 7 VM on virtualbox). expected result 1: when laptop is undocked, the laptop monitor is enabled again. expected result 2: when laptop is docked in, the laptop monitor is disabled again and the primary display is the external monitor. (Needless to say, that those things work with Windows for years already). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
