Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

This bug is very similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/329402 but affects the applet not the display settings dialog.

When an additional monitor is attached after a login, the applet does only show the currently configured monitor. A click on display settings in the applet reveals also the new monitor but at the same time opens the dialog.

The applet should be able to get notified of the event or it should rescan the available monitors when it get's clicked.

That configuration dialog is deprecated in GNOME3 and Oneiric so closing the bug, feel free to open new bugs about other issues you might find though
