--- Comment #2 from php4...@gmail.com --- > Do you have more than one screen? Yes, the laptop's built-in screen and one external screen. The external one is configured as the main and only screen, and the built-in one turned off. When I boot, I do the following things in completely random order (I should not be expected to do them in any particular order): - open the lid if I am turning on the computer, so that I can push the on/off button to turn it on (because sadly the on/off button is under the lid, a stupid design flaw that most laptops share). Or, if I am rebooting but software rebooting is not working, I open the lid so that I can access the on/off button in order to force a power off and then power on. - close the lid while the system is booting - connect the external screen if it wasn't already connected (usually it is, but if I need to open the laptop I also need to take it off of where it usually sits, and for that, sometimes I disconnect everything to take it off more easily, and then I reconnect everything. - log in Sometimes I don't need any of that (except the login), if I am just rebooting and rebooting from software works: in that case I just reboot, the lid remains closed all the time and the external screen remains connected all the time. That is if I don't incur in bug 472581, in which case I need to open the lid so that the login screen shows up on the built-in screen. > does the issue still reproduce with only one screen? I don't know. Maybe not. I very rarely use the laptop without the external screen, and it requires too much time to test it on purpose. I can say with certainty that sometimes It happened that I booted with the built-in screen only and didn't observe the issue, but (a) I am not completely sure that I never did observe the issue with the built-in screen only, (b) with the external screen I don't think it happens 100% of the times, (c) I pretty rarely reboot or turn off and on the computer at all (basically I only do when some bug forces me to, or when I travel). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
