I will attach 3 files with the output of xrandr --verbose. However, this is with Precise w/o edgers ppa. I'll first update to edgers ppa, do it again, then later try Raring.
First file is xrandr --verbose when booting w/o VGA external connected (and still disconnected). So this is "baseline". Second file is xrandr --verbose after plugging in VGA external (but having booted w/o it). This is the scenario where the screen is "blank" getting "no signal" even though "Displays" indicates it is connected and "on". Third file is xrandr --verbose after booting with VGA external connected. In this case (and only in this case), the external works properly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979748 Title: [expected] VGA monitor only gets signal on boot (no “hot plugging”, no EDID) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/979748/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
