On Lenovo Thinkpad X201 with docking station with two external monitors, one on VGA, one on displayport effect is generally that the screen being left just flickers slightly.
I have had the screen go black with flickering pixels on the side and thought it was when crossing over slowly but just tried to replicate and can't so more rare in my case. Fresh 16.04 install yesterday (was on 14.04 with no issue). Linux ThinkPad-X201 4.4.0-28-generic #47-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jun 24 10:09:13 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1553503 Title: multi monitors - black flashes or black screen when the mouse cursor leaves a monitor Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: When the mouse cursor leaves one of the screens, there is either : - no problem - the screen becomes black just below the position of the cursor and instantly comes back to normal. - the screen becomes entirely black with some random colored pixels flickering on the far left of the screen. I have to move the cursor to the black screen, otherwise it stays black. It happens on Ubuntu Gnome 16.04 Beta and Ubuntu Mate 16.04 Beta. I have tested with other distributions (Debian Jessie and Fedora) and everything is fine. Hardware : Intel Ironlake (Thinkpad X201) with an external monitor plugged in.
