Description Dan Loomis 2016-05-25 04:56:03 UTC
Running F24 Beta on an HP ZBook 17 G2.   Have an ASUS 1440p monitor connected to the display port.   Laptop has ATI Firepro discrete graphics driving the display port and Intel graphics driving the laptop screen.  

The monitors power down after twelve minutes.   Upon waking them up when running Wayland all of the windows have been moved to the laptop screen and resized.   This does not occur when running X.

Wow, I am amazed that it works at all, output on secondary GPU is supposed to be missing in mutter on Wayland:

I investigated this tonight.  The Hybrid Graphics in the BIOS on this system is set to Auto (The choices are Off, On and Auto.)   When I run lspci -vvv the only graphics device in the list is the AMD adapter "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Bonaire XT [Radeon R9 M280X] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])"   The built in Intel adapter is not listed in lspci or dmidecode.  It looks like the system is only using the AMD Firepro in both X and Wayland.    Thanks for the comment.   I had never looked closely at this.
Comment 3 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 13:49:38 UTC
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
