I have a Dell XPS 14 laptop and two Dell U2414H monitors I am trying to make them work as two separate displays using MST under Ubuntu 14.04.
>From my laptop outputs a DisplayPort cable to the first monitor DisplayPort input, then from this first monitor, outputs another DisplayPort cable to the second one. All I get is the two U2414H monitors mirrored, and they show up in Ubuntu display settings as a single monitor. If applicable in my setup I would like to test any patch possible.
