Public bug reported: I have a haswell motherboard with 3 1080p monitors connected, 2 directly via HDMI and a 3rd HDMI connected to an active displayport dongle. The monitor on the displayport connection had been working fairly reliably until I decided to finally upgrade my bios to fix some other issues (big mistake, since I late found out its nearly impossible to downgrade). Since I upgraded the monitor nearly never works, I did get it to show display a few times but I'm not sure how that happened. At the moment while researching information to add to this post it actually started working for the moment. When I run xrandr it causes the screens to blink rapidly for around 30sec-1min.
In dmesg I see instances of: [ 10.053292] [drm] HPD interrupt storm detected on connector DP-1: switching from hotplug detection to polling [ 240.125029] [drm] HPD interrupt storm detected on connector DP-1: switching from hotplug detection to polling Also fwiw I get different errors, and a kernel backtrace, but still no display on current drm-intel-nightly from here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/drm-intel-nightly/ And of course it all still works fine under Windows 8.1.
