I just did an upgrade and have discovered that if I boot into 12.04 with a second monitor, go into the Display Settings, ensure my laptop monitor is enabled with the right reso (1600x900), clicking 'Apply' switches on the monitor! But it appears it will only switch on when the external is enabled too, so I can't make it happen without an external monitor there and activated.
So I guess the question is, why can't it start up the monitor on boot? -- 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/912992 Title: [snb-m-gt2+] Primary laptop display not working, external monitor works fine.
