Hey guys, Just FYI, I've found a workaround for this issue on 12.04.03 LTS. The fix involves installing kernel v3.12-rc6 suggested by Christopher. I had wireless and keyboard issues but they were minor fixes. See details in posts #6 & #7: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-lts-raring/+bug/1242013
My monitor is working with the DP to VGA, wifi and keyboard also work fine. Woo. I'll keep testing and post back any updates. You should definitely try it to see if it fixes your issue too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1165965 Title: External display stopped working Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After upgrading to 13.04 beta, my external monitor is no longer detected/driven.
