[QUOTE="majgeneralpanic, post: 1609128, member: 334390"] I'm the sysadmin at a school —*our teachers are having this same problem, which seems to be triggered by connecting MacBook Pro 2012s to a display via VGA. A permissions repair and a reboot temporarily fixes the issue. I've also gotten it on my machine. The only common link between my computer and the teachers' is that we have MBPs and are running Mavericks — they were set up via Casper Suite imaging, and I downloaded from Apple and installed directly. It strikes me as a graphics driver issue — reminds me of how third-party mini displayport adapters don't function on this model, a Known Issue since Mountain Lion that Apple doesn't care to address. I will try a PRAM reset on an affected teacher and see if that helps. [/QUOTE]
