Okay, I tested the daily build of xenial (ubuntu version) this morning.
It is using kernel 4.3.0-2, and I can confirm that this detects the
monitor without problem.

You mean upgrade to the whole distribution or just the kernel? This
issue is happening on my main work laptop so I need reasonable stability
so I'm not sure I want to use a pre-alpha distro.
I think for now I am fine using the mainline 4.3 kernel which works
fine, or the 4.2.0-rc8 one which I comp

and I have attached the output.
The summary is that commit 4efa83c8c786ab7ec7982e3dd348cb7e7ecbeb04 is
the one that fixes things. This makes sense because I am attaching my
external monitor via a DP->VGA dongle, mentioned in

Dear Christopher,
Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I won't be able to do this
for at least a week because Real Life™ is too busy. (Also, I've not
updated a BIOS before so I am cautious about the idea.)
But if I can do it some time in the next week or two I shall update the

Public bug reported:
On xubuntu 15.10.
Kernel version 4.2.0-18-generic x86_64 does not detect an external
monitor when it is connected via the minidisplay port. Using xrandr, I
can force output to the monitor, but the maximum resolution is 1024x768
(I think). Hardware is a Dell XPS 13.

I was having a problem rather similar to this (although on different
hardware). I found that installing a 4.3.xx version kernel from the
mainline builds described above fixed the problem.
(Miraculously, I don't think it broke anything else either!)

Wahoo!! The vivid-proposed kernel seems to fix the issues for me too.
Thanks to all who worked on this: Much appreciated.
Just out of interest, is it any clearer yet what the problem was?
Thanks again.

I am not aware that anyone is working on it. I suspect that if it's a
driver issue then it would require the xorg people to fix it, not
xubuntu.

I noticed there was an update to the intel driver earlier this week for
my xubuntu system. It fixed one other problem I'd been having (slightly
buggy playback of video in VLC) but doesn't seem to have helped the
issues in this bug.
Any of the gurus fancy taking a crack at it?

Moritz, did you try the UXA fix? If this makes your machine work well
then this may help to confirm that we are experiencing the same issue.

I am also experiencing this kind of issue. For me, the problems manifest as

I have managed to find some sort of work-around for this. It turns out the
