Public bug reported:

My problem is, If I connect an external display (monitor, projector,
etc) Ubuntu detects it only once, only the first time I plug it in.
After that, I can't reconnect that external display again, Ubuntu does
not see it. After a system restart the disply is detected again, for the
first time I plug it in.

This problem is really annying, because initializing all the
applications run before needs a lot of time.

I don't know if problem is with the libdrm package, but my syslog got a
lot of these errors when I plugged OUT the display:

Jan 16 09:23:33 probook430 kernel: [   92.060702] 
[drm:intel_dp_start_link_train] *ERROR* too many voltage retries, give up
Jan 16 09:23:33 probook430 kernel: [   92.066291] 
[drm:intel_dp_start_link_train] *ERROR* too many voltage retries, give up

This problem is persistent, and can be reproduced every time with every
external display.
