I then rebooted my pc using latest upstream kernel.
Unfortunately HDMI is still NOT working with this version of the
linux/Ubuntu kernel.
When booting I see the Acer welcome screen with the usual BIOS and Boot
Sequence options, followed by a purple screen without the Ubuntu logo,
shortly afterwards my screen just goes black/blank.
When I connect the analogue cable and select the analogue connection on
my monitor I see the Ubuntu logon menu and my system behaves normally.
Therefore I will tag my bug as "kernel bug exists upstream" as requested
Using the upstream kernel I have also executed the previously requested
command - here is its output:-

Title:
HDMI not working after update to linux image 3.8.0.31.46
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Operating System: Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit
Hardware: Acer Aspire x3450 AMD Athlon II X2 220 Processor x 2; Graphics
Gallium 0.4 on AMD RS880; Monitor Samsung Syncmaster P2250.
Problem/Bug: HDMI video output from pc to Samsung Syncmaster P2250 via
HDMI/DVI adaptor cable no longer works after Ubuntu's Software Updater updated
my system from linux-image 3.8.0.30.44 to 3.8.0.31.46.
I get an initial purple screen, without the Ubuntu logo, then absolutely
nothing.
Had to revert to old style analogue connection to make my system useable.
