Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: transmission

I just installed the new 9.10 on my machine, and verified that the
gnome-display-properties is not working as it was in 9.04. I am actually
setting multiple display by attaching my TV to the VGA output of my
laptop. I had issues before with 8.10 (worked, but getting it back to a
single display would cause the gnome to get weird), which were also
fixed on the 9.04 version. I even blog'd about it at:
http://www.brunobraga.net/linux-geek/multiplemonitors

The issue: I plug the TV on my laptop, and nothing happens (checking
dmesg, the device is properly recognized: [drm] T-14: set mode NTSC 480i
0). As usual, I would just go to the "screen resolution" (became
"display" now). But when it starts, the whole Ubuntu freezes (I can not
even open other tty's) completely. I enabled the apport but there is no
visible crash or report of the problem, so I don't know how I can be
more helpful to troubleshoot this.

Replicate the issue: connect to external monitor (I did with TV), and try to 
open the gnome-display-properties window.
Incidence: happens every single time

Additional info:
Machine: Toshiba Dynabook TX/66C
OS: Ubuntu 9.10 64-bits

Thanks in advance,
