Install the new mutter and gnome-shell on the target machine. 2. connect an external display. 3. Press either the monitor switch HOT key (each note book have different one), or the generic hot key (Meta-P) 4. Make sure the display mode is switch to next mode, not the first mode. * Regression potential very low, because it's merged upstream and also tested in oem platforms. -- When the "Fn lock" is enabled, we can switch the video mode by one key: video-key (Fn+F8). But, the key event is too frequent. It's hard to select the wanted video mode. Reproduce steps: Press down the Video-out hotkey Expected results: User can select Video mode precisely by Video-out hotkey Actual results: The speed of switch video mode is too fast makes can not select Video mode precisely Notebook: XPS 13 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mutter/+bug/1772811/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
