That patch fixes a bug where plugging in a new monitor causes your other
monitors to turn off.

I think what is happening is that when you unplug the external, the internal
display turns back on (logically anyway) because otherwise you'd have no
displays at all.

Then you plug in the external monitor and one of two things happens:

 - Before the patch: the bug happens and causes the internal monitor to turn
off. This just happens to be what you want, but it happens accidentally.

 - After the patch, the bug doesn't happen so the internal monitor stays on.
The taskbar is constrained to the smaller one because they both have position
0x0.


What happens if you open and close the laptop after getting into the fail
state?
