[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1365695] Re: No longer able to use GUI after update

[Luke Swart]

I have the same problem as sohel, where the original issue is fixed but
my external monitor is not detected by Nvidia Prime. I created a
question here:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/550750/nvidia-prime-does-not-detect-
external-vga-monitor-after-updating-ubuntu-drivers

but there are no answers. I have held `ubuntu-drivers-common` at version
0.2.91.5, which allows me to use the external monitor, but it causes
other problems. Before this issue occurred, my setup was working fine.

Ubuntu 14.04 on Lenovo W520

[Luke Swart]

Thank you everyone who helped to fix, or develop a workaround, for this
issue. That is awesome.

I still have a hold on my "ubuntu-drivers-common" and "nvidia-common"
packages, and I am wondering whether it is safe to remove these holds. I
have a question detailing this situation here:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/521354/multiple-monitors-and-nvidia-
optimus-not-working-after-apt-get-update

It seems that this bug is not entirely fixed, although there is a
workaround available, so I am wondering whether it is safe to update my
packages. Sorry if I have not understood the status on this bug, but an
explanation or suggestions to help me follow future bugs would be
greatly appreciated.
