VGA unplug, replug needs xrandr off, xrandr on since recently

Hello,
I need to plug and unplug my laptop several times a day to an external VGA beamer.
Before recently, I switched on the external VGA (DP1) ONE time by:
xrandr --output eDP1 --mode 1366x768 --output DP1 --mode 1366x768
and no matter how I pluged VGA in and out, the VGA output stayed active and usable.
But since recently, when I unplug VGA and plug it in again, there is no signal at the VGA output. I have to do
xrandr --output eDP1 --mode 1366x768 --output DP1 --off && xrandr --output eDP1 --mode 1366x768 --output DP1 --mode 1366x768
in order to get the VGA output working again.
So I would like to have it still the old way, with VGA output staying on, no matter how I unplug and plug. How can I achieve that?
Reference:

Try dropping the --brightness switch, and set it with xbacklight instead From man xrandr:
       --brightness brightness
              Multiply  the  gamma  values  on  the  crtc  currently
              attached to the output to  specified  floating  value.
              Useful  for overly bright or overly dim outputs.  How‐
              ever, this is a software only  modification,  if  your
              hardware  has  support  to actually change the bright‐
              ness, you will probably prefer to use xbacklight.

  • Must unplug/replug monitor to work

    Hi,
    Had my 23" Cinema HD monitor for some months now and have not had any problems until now.
    It won't come on when I turn my Power Mac on. I have to unplug either the AC or DC cord from the power adapter and then plug it in again for the display to come on? If I turn the display off, I need to do this again. It also switches itself off when a screensaver kicks in or sometimes when I change the brightness level.
    Any one shed any light on this please? Sounds like the power adapter is playing up. I've tried plugging the monitor into a PC too with similar results, so I don't think it's the graphics card.
    Thanks.

    My display is still not working correctly. Apple refuse to take it in for service. I haven't had time to take it to a Service Provider or Apple Centre yet as I am too busy at work. It sounds like they wouldn't be able to give me any answers anyway. I will try and go next week though if I can.
    Everyone that's posted appears to have different video cards, so I can't really see that this is the problem?
    Some are reporting that their LED light stays on. This is not the case with mine. I sometimes see the light come on briefly when I power the Mac on, otherwise it never lights up as it used to when the screen was asleep.
    If my display or Power Mac goes to sleep then there is no way for me to get the screen back on. I have to turn the computer off and then do the unplug/replug thing again after I turn the Mac on again.
    Interesting to hear there are so many with similar issues. Surely a software update hasn't caused this? Is it the power brick or the monitor itself? To me it's as if the display is struggling to get enough power to come on. Once on though, it is fine.
    Hope there is a solution to this and that these power adapters aren't as fragile as I'm beginning to think they are.

  • ADC Apple Display only works by unplugging-replugging power source

    I recently replaced my PRAM battery due to the following issues:
    1. The ADC Cinema Display quit
    2. I kept getting a "update time manually message
    3. I lost connection with an external
    I replaced the battery and it solved the external disk mounting, but I have to continually reset my pram by unplugging to get the cinema display to get it to work. I have reset the pmu button (for 1 second) . I have done an Apple/option pr startup pram reset. Funny thing is that it started up to the original drive. I have 3 drive slots occupied. The original drive is still in the same drive slot Don't know if this could be an issue.
    Okay, I just did another restart after the screen went dead again. It didn't connect. I am unplugging, waiting 30 seconds, replugging, and waahla... the display is on. It just went off again after about a minute. I hit to on button and it didn't start. I disconnected the power this time and it restarts and the display is on. Anyone have a clue on this one?????

    Allan,
    Thanks for the reply. I'm running NVIDIA Geoforce4 T 4500 128mb, the original card. I have no usb cords plugged into the display. I never unplug it except in storms. I'm unplugging/replugging just recently to get the display to work. I have had the computer since 2002 and just replaced the pram battery yesterday. I'm not using any cable adapters. I have 2 extra drives installed in addition to the original ibm. All drives are ATA.  Interestingly, if I zap the pram, as I did for the first remedy, it restarts not in my start up drive (WD 320), but to the original drive running Tiger (ibm 120). I'm thinking about changing drive slots, but I don't know if that will do anything, just a guess.

  • Have to unplug/replug USB cable to HP3300mfp

    Purchased new Intel iMAC and upgraded to 10.4.10. HP3300 mfp worked with old system,and works with new system - IF you unplug/replug USB cable each time you start up computer, wake the computer from sleep, or after not using the printer for a while even though using the computer. Tried reinstalling driver, resetting printers in Print Utility, turning printer off/on, etc. Printer shows in System Profile. At least we found how to make it work - just an aggravation. Suggestions appreciated.

    I'm experiencing the same thing lately. Frustrating and unable to backup to my iDisk. Doesn't appear to be being caused by my ISP (comcast) which is surprising.

  • My iPod won't play unless it's being charged. Once I unplug it, it turns off, help!

    I dropped it a while ago (stupid, yes) and the whole thing fell apart. I put it together again, and when it's plugged into a charger it works, but when I unplug it, it turns off and won't turn on. My friend thinks it's a battery issue, help please!

    That definitely sounds like a battery issue. However, could be the battery connector itself is unplugged or loose enough so that it contain build up a charge.  Either way, your iPod will need to be serviced.

  • Lost Air Disks. Constantly have to unplug/replug USB hard drive.

    Unplugging/replugging it in seems to resolve the problem, but that's not good for hard drives.
    I have a WD Passport plugged into the Airport Extreme.
    It does this on my 15" MBP, my 27" iMac and my Mac Pro. On other words, every Mac on the network.

    That's a portable, right? Does it have it's own power supply? If not, you need a powered USB hub, as the Extreme doesn't provide much power to the USB port. See [Uses for the USB port of Time Capsule, AirPort Extreme, AirPort Express|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2421?viewlocale=en_US].
    Even if it does have it's own power supply, you may need a powered hub, especially for larger drives.

  • Losing internet on WRT54GS, and only unplug/replug works.

    My router keeps going out, and the only thing that gets me back on is to unplug, replug, then I'm good but only for about 20 minutes.  Ideas?

    So for the reconfiguration of the Router, let me know the name of the ISP (Internet Service Provider)… Internet Service that you have is a DSL connection or a Cable connection…
    So if you have a DSL connection you can refer to this link:
    http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&login=1&vw=1&app=search&articleid=4020&userrole=Linksy...
    So if you have a Cable Internet Connection you can refer to this link:
    http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&vw=1&articleid=3686
    Then for further settings:
    # Open up the browser and on the address bar type “IP address of Default Gateway” that will open up the Router setup page…
    # Then Click on wireless Tab create the Wireless Network Name SSID and select the channel to 6, 9, and 11… Click Save Settings...
    # Then click Under Advanced Wireless Settings change Beacon Interval to 75, Fragmentation Threshold to 2306, RTS Threshold to 2307...
    Then check the connectivity…

  • Is there any way to access my old my verizon account to retrieve old text messages from my own old account from 8 months ago?  I am getting a divorce and I need info off of that account for my hearing to prove what he did.

    Is there any way to access my old my Verizon account to retrieve old text messages from my own old account from 8 months ago?  I am getting a divorce and I need info off of that account for my hearing to prove what he did.

    What do you mean by "when I brought the messages up back in March"?
    Were the messages on your phone? Simply because messages are on your phone does not mean they are still on Verizon's servers. You use internal phone memory to store messages on your phone. The messages do not stay on Verizon's servers until you delete them from your phone.
    On the other hand, if you still have your phone and have not reset it since you stopped using it, the texts may still be on your phone. Good luck.

  • Mouse reduced to a three button mouse when unpluged/repluged

    It's me and my mouse again.
    This time the problem is that the scroll and side buttons stops working when I unplug and erplug the mouse back in again. It's a Logitech MX518 mouse.
    My MX518 use /dev/input/event4.

    When I unplug my mouse, the /dev/input/event4 is removed. When I replug my mouse back in again, a new event is created named /dev/input/event5. And my mouse is suddently reduced to a three button mouse. To fix this, I have to kill X, unplug/replug my mouse, and start X again.
    This is after unplug/replug the mouse without restarting X

    I'm using udev to create links for my Logitech MX700 Duo (Logitech Elite keyboard + MX700 mouse).
    Here are my udev rules:
    # Laptop keyboard

    # Alps TouchPad
    # GlidePoint

    # Mouse
    BUS=="usb", SYSFS{bInterfaceNumber}=="01", SYSFS{bInterfaceProtocol}=="02", NAME="input/%k", SYMLINK+="input/mx700duo_souris"
    The bInterfaceNumber/Protocol are the only thing that can differcienciate the two (same wireless receiver...).
    Hope you will be able to adapt it to your kb/mouse.

  • Linksys E1000 cannot ping gateway unless I unplug/replug WAN

    I have been using this router for the last six months and never had a single problem. Then yesterday out of nowhere internet stopped working and I was not able ping my ISP gateway (both wired and wireless) [Received: Destination host not reachable on both Windows Vista / 7]. Rebooted the router but still no luck. Unplugged / Replugged the net connection from the WAN port and then finally ping was successful.
    Now the weird this is every time I power on the router the Internet does not work and ISP Gateway seems not reachable, but if I unplug/replug the WAN connection the ping reply starts and internet works without any problem.
    I have updated the firmware to the latest version (2.1.02 build 5May 6, 2011), disabled SPI  firewall and tried changing the MTU value but still no luck.
    Another unusual thing I have noticed is that during the router boot up the WAN port LED blinks a lot faster than usual. After I unplug/replug the wan connection the blinking rate seems to be normal.

    My ISP Gateway uses a completely different IP address 172.16.x.x, while my router has the default IP setup 192.168.1.1. The thing is I am able to ping the router IP, but not the ISP Gateway IP unless I unplug/replug WAN.
    I googled around quite a bit yesterday and found that others have also had similar problem.

  • I have the iPhone 4. I recently switched from PC to IMac. I am trying to sync my iPhone, but iTunes will not let me add or remove anything. Do I need to change a setting since I changed computers? Help!

    I have the iPhone 4. I recently switched from PC to IMac. I am trying to sync my iPhone, but iTunes will not let me add or remove anything. Do I need to change a setting since I changed computers? I try to add songs from my music into my phone section and it will not go... Plus the playlists on my phone are not updated on my iTunes phone on my computer. Its like it never updated. What am I doing wrong??

    Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.
    When you sync to another it will delete the current content.
    Make sure you have copied everything from your old computer to your new one first.

  • Can you use soundtrack pro's loops in your youtube videos or do you need to purchase a license since it is royalty free?

    Can you use soundtrack pro's loops in your youtube videos or do you need to purchase a license since it is royalty free?
    I understand they are royalty free, I am just confused about using the actual loops for films, videos, etc - if there is a special license you must purchase or what?
    Yes sure, it's a library and may be used a lot - but is it legal or against agreement?
    And to clarify - what about music I create on the program , that is ok right?

    If you purchased the software you have the right to use the loops that came with the software in the software to make whatever you want.

    If you have followed the standard Apple troubleshooting processes (see user guide )
    probably a trip to the local Apple Store Genius bar is called for before warranty runs out
    Assuming the iPad has been released in your Country if not you may have to take it to a
    neighbouring Country where it is available
    This page will tell you ,via the drop down menu Countries that can support iPad

  • Tried to upgrade to osx 10.9 from 10.7 and I didn't notice that it downloads in the launcher. I turned my mac off and ever since then it has glitched out and will not download no matter what I do. I have had it for 3 years which is out of warranty.

    Tried to upgrade to osx 10.9 from 10.7 and I didn't notice that it downloads in the launcher. I turned my mac off and ever since then it has glitched out and will not download no matter what I do. I have had it for 3 years which is out of warranty. It now has a blank bar under the launch pad and no matter how many times I try re-downloading it or restarting my computer it does not work. I use too play starcraft and other games on this computer although new patched/updates have made it that I can no longer do that now. Really frustrating having to deal with this especially after buying this computer upfront and now out of warranty.

    Go to your Applications folder and find a file called "Install OS X Mavericks".  Send it to the trash and delete it.  Then try the download again.
