[Bug 445609] [NEW] [Karmic]Crash with black screen when trying to enable second monitor

[Laurens Bosscher]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Stepts to reproduce :

1. Open Display
2. Enable the second monitor (first one running on 1280x800, second on 1650x1050)
3. Press aply

Results :

A black screen with a mouse pointer that cant be moved, I also can't
open a console (ctrl + alt + F1) or do anything else.

Expected results :

I expected to use the second monitor or an error that this configuration
was not supported.

Using Karmic 9.10 and xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.8.1-1ubuntu3

I could not find any related bugs but I could find some information
about UXA not supporting this. Perhaps an warming should be provided to
intel users since UXA is default in 9.10?
