Title: Second Monitor on HDMI blank screen/blink screen with Nvidia + Intel & Ubuntu 20.04? (ASUS Laptop) Status in kernel-package package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in mesa package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in nouveau-firmware package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-440 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in xserver-xorg-video-intel package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I installed Ubuntu 20.04 on my ASUS laptop with Intel+Nvidia with propietary drivers of Nvidia (I have 440.64 rn) and I connected a second monitor to use it, but I saw that I cannot use it, I just see a blank screen. I tried with a TV of my room and same. The funny part is when I start the laptop to work, I can see the logo of my BIOS and the ASUS logo in the second monitor, even the grub, but after that I can't see nothing. When I reduce the resolution of the second monitor (800x600) then works, but even with that sometimes blinks to black again. On W10 for example it works perfectly, so I deduce it's not 'cause my HDMI. I tried with nouveau drivers and I have the same results btw. Laptop Asus with: Graphic card ---- Nvidia GTX960M Processor -------- Intel i5 6300 I tried with Nvidia Prime to Nvidia, Intel and On-demand. None of them works. All of them with Xorg. I have this with xrandr: Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 2720 x 1080, maximum 16384 x 16384 eDP-1-1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 193mm 1920x1080 60.00*+ 59.97 59.96 59.93 1680x1050 59.95 59.88 1600x1024 60.17 1400x1050 59.98 1600x900 59.99 59.94 59.95 59.82 1280x1024 60.02 1440x900 59.89 1400x900 59.96 59.88 1280x960 60.00 1440x810 60.00 59.97 1368x768 59.88 59.85 1360x768 59.80 59.96 1280x800 59.99 59.97 59.81 59.91 1152x864 60.00 1280x720 60.00 59.99 59.86 59.74 1024x768 60.04 60.00 960x720 60.00 928x696 60.05 896x672 60.01 1024x576 59.95 59.96 59.90 59.82 960x600 59.93 60.00 960x540 59.96 59.99 59.63 59.82 800x600 60.00 60.32 56.25 840x525 60.01 59.88 864x486 59.92 59.57 800x512 60.17 700x525 59.98 800x450 59.95 59.82 640x512 60.02 720x450 59.89 700x450 59.96 59.88 640x480 60.00 59.94 720x405 59.51 58.99 684x384 59.88 59.85 680x384 59.80 59.96 640x400 59.88 59.98 576x432 60.06 640x360 59.86 59.83 59.84 59.32 512x384 60.00 512x288 60.00 59.92 480x270 59.63 59.82 400x300 60.32 56.34 432x243 59.92 59.57 320x240 60.05 360x202 59.51 59.13 320x180 59.84 59.32 DP-1-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI-1-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI-1-2 connected 800x600+1920+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 1600mm x 900mm 1920x1080 60.00 + 50.00 59.94 30.00 25.00 24.00 29.97 23.98 1920x1080i 60.00 50.00 59.94 1280x1024 60.02 1360x768 60.02 1152x864 59.97 1280x720 59.81 60.00 50.00 59.94 1024x768 60.00 800x600 60.32* 720x576 50.00 720x576i 50.00 720x480 60.00 59.94 640x480 60.00 59.94 720x400 70.08 DP-1-2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI-1-3 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) PD: When you select a specific resolution, the second monitor "works", but it blinks, the image showed via HDMI on the second monitor blinks. So is impossible to work with it. Since all this time I was searching about this and I'm almost sure this is a problem of the GPU's Intel. But I saw this problem on askubuntu just with laptops with hybrid graphics. Always with Nvidia+Intel. (Maybe AMD+Nvidia too, but I'm not sure if they have the same problem here).
