I then rebooted my pc using latest upstream kernel.
Unfortunately HDMI is still NOT working with this version of the
linux/Ubuntu kernel.
When booting I see the Acer welcome screen with the usual BIOS and Boot
Sequence options, followed by a purple screen without the Ubuntu logo,
shortly afterwards my screen just goes black/blank.
When I connect the analogue cable and select the analogue connection on
my monitor I see the Ubuntu logon menu and my system behaves normally.
Therefore I will tag my bug as "kernel bug exists upstream" as requested
Using the upstream kernel I have also executed the previously requested
command - here is its output:-
study@Eastford-Study:~$ uname -r
