I am having the exact same problem with a Dell Inspiron E1705. The external DVI monitor will not work since upgrading to 9.10. My Dell has the same Intel Graphics controller as the MacBook and xrandr reports the DVI is disconnected when it is actually plugged in, just as reported by the MacBook user. If I reboot under Windows XP the monitor works fine.
