I am affected by this too. I found that if i reboot with the external display connected both lvds and external display work.
However if i connect the external display after booting with only the lvds screen: then on connection only the external display works. I think this happened recently after the upgrade to driver version 2:2.99.904-0ubuntu1 and then ubuntu2. It used to work correctly before, it think 903 worked but i'll have to test. -- 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/1237677 Title: In 13.10, internal laptop display no longer functioning in graphical mode after plugging into external projector To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1237677/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ 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
