Good grief. I took the time to submit the bug.
I took the time to upgrade my BIOS and report to you that it's still broken after doing so. I have a solution to my problem -- using the nvidia driver instead of nouveau -- so the marginal value to me in continuing to invest time and effort in this is minimal. I think I've done my duty here. Do something more about this or not; that's your call. I'm out. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1536165 Title: X server hangs on start when DisplayPort is connected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1536165/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
