Bug Description
Steps to reproduce:
1. Boot up the device, then plug in HDMI/VGA port
2. Check "Mirror displays" in Display of System Settings
3. Set the screen to lower resolution (e.g. 800x600) and apply change
4. Toggling Fn+F4 for a cycle, can't switch to extended mode
Expected Result:
Display modes should be "Mirror mode" -> "Extended mode" -> "Internal only mode" -> "External only mode"
Actual Result:
Display modes are "Mirror mode" -> "Mirror mode" -> "Internal only mode" -> "External only mode"
Note:
If unchecked "Mirror displays" and apply again, g-s-d can get the Xinerama configuration.
Some error messages while running g-s-d in debug mode:

Thanks, what version of Ubuntu are you using?
Is there any chance you could open an upstream bug about it on https:/ /bugzilla. gnome.org/ enter_bug. cgi?product= gnome-settings- daemon (test if it's still happening on saucy before though)?
