-I bought a new alienware laptop with nvidia GT 650M graphics card and onboard
Intel HD 4000 video
(http://www.dell.com/us/p/alienware-m14x-r2/pd.aspx, click tech specs to see
hardware)
-I installed windows 7
-I installed Ubunutu 12.04
-installed grub
-system worked on the laptop, no external monitors yet
-connected external monitors (one vga, one hdmi, one displayport). Only 2
worked, the displayport monitor not recognized at all
-I upgraded all of my packages via the update manager
-rebooted
-when my system booted up, I got a blank screen. I tried rebooting a few times,
trying the recovery mode into basic graphics but that didn't help.
-I unplugged everything including my external monitors and then rebooted, and
then my system booted properly and then I could plug in my 2 external monitors
again and everything worked.
-I tested a couple of times and if I have the monitors plugged in I get various
errors like 'bad lun' or graphics error during boot, errors shown in the
console, no gui
Cheers,
Mark
