Description Chris Bredesen 2011-06-15 22:10:15 UTC
Description of problem:

When trying to work around bug 663649 by manually shutting off LVDS1, the system incorrectly suspends my connected external display (in this case it's HDMI3).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Fedora 15, Intel Sandy Bridge graphics

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Device 0126 (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
	Subsystem: Lenovo Device 21cf
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 41
	Memory at d0000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4M]
	Memory at c0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
	I/O ports at 5000 [size=64]
	Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled]
	Capabilities: <access denied>
	Kernel driver in use: i915
	Kernel modules: i915

How reproducible:

Always.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Suspend laptop (mine is a ThinkPad T520) while docked with a display connected.

2. Press power button to resume system with laptop lid closed.

3. System comes up with both LVDS1 and connected display enabled (this is problematic and described in the other bug).

4. Attempt to correct the situation (xrandr --auto does not resolve) by doing either 'xrandr --output LVDS1 --off' or using the Displays applet.
  
Actual results:

System correctly disables LVDS1 but ASLO disables HDMI3.

Expected results:

System correctly disables LVDS1 but and leaves HDMI3 alone.

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 14:43:59 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
