Hi Shizoom,
         There was a workshop a few week ago in Italy, and not seeing this kind 
of problem. I would suggest you to try out a few favorite bundles under 
Displays menu first, if all these bundles working ok, I can email you the 
workshop plugin, I don;t want to spend a lot of time digging in this issue 
unless we can reproduce it here.
