I have the same issue but on a Dell laptop, with NVIDIA GeForce GT 525M and Intel video card. On the Ubuntu 14.04 alpha and beta stages I didn't had any issue, but with the "stable" version xorg.conf is deleted after boot. Now I have some annoying behavior with my external monitor connected through HDMI. The gpu-manager.log looks like this: __________________________________ log_file: /var/log/gpu-manager.log last_boot_file: /var/lib/ubuntu-drivers-common/last_gfx_boot new_boot_file: /var/lib/ubuntu-drivers-common/last_gfx_boot Skipping "/dev/dri/card0", driven by "nouveau" Found "/dev/dri/card1", driven by "i915" output 0: LVDS connector Number of connected outputs for /dev/dri/card1: 1 Does it require offloading? yes grep dmesg status 256 dmesg status 256 == 0?
