Public bug reported: I have a monitor connected to my macbook air 4,2 through a dvi to mini- dvi adapter plugged into the thunderbolt port. If I have the adapter connected to the mac when I start up, everything works fine. However, when I remove or connect the dvi to mini-dvi adapter while the mac is booted into Ubuntu, then the screen goes black.
