Looking at the dupes, it appears apport is noticing the gpu lockup that occurred with the original bug report and duping gpu lockups with the same signature. So, quite potentially there were two separate bugs going on: a) A gpu lockup (IPEHR: 0x7a005502) b) Black screen on VGA connection The dupes to this bug report (so far) are all showing (a) but none have much of a description so hard to say if they're seeing (b) as well. However, separately there have been other reports of just issue (b): 750259 [arrandale] Dual screen not working/shows corruption (x86_64) 734756 [Arrandale] Blank screen when booting with external monitor (x86_64) 754799 [arrandale] external VGA output doesn't output anything (i686) 745112 [arrandale] desktop is messed up (goes black) when laptop is docked (x86_64) 756624 [pineviewgm] black screen attaching external monitor (x86_64) 758785 [arrandale] Display flickers or blank on login (x86_64) 761236 [Arrandale] unable to correctly enable monitors connected to VGA (x86_64) 762855 [sandybridge-m-gt2+] Display on external monitor (vga) is black on 13" MacBook Pro 8,1 (x86_64) Possibly (a) and (b) are related, but for now let's treat them as separate bugs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/747205 Title: [arrandale] Black screen on all outputs when external VGA is connected _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
