Rocko, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-a12 needs-upstream-testing ** Tags removed: kernel-request-3.0.0-12.19 kernel-request-3.0.0-12.20 ** Tags added: bot-stop-nagging ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- 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/851503 Title: second monitor turns off at login and stays off Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have a laptop with a Sandy Bridge chipset and an external monitor connected via mini-display port. When the lightdm login screen appears, the external monitor turns off and does not come back on after login. xrandr indicates that the monitor is on even though it clearly isn't. This is a known bug in the 3.0 kernel which has been fixed in the 3.1 kernel, but the author wasn't specific about which one of several patches fixed the problem. The workaround is to either use xrandr or the display settings (which are harder to use in Oneiric since the display indicator was removed) to turn the monitor off and back on again.
