Hi,

I've just installed bumblebee to save some battery when I'm traveling.
However, when my laptop (Lenovo T420s) is on its dock station, I use
two external displays (one VGA and one DisplayPort). It uses to work
well with the nvidia-current package but now I see only the VGA
display and the laptop screen; No displayPort anymore :-(
I was use to fix this by using either the displays setting from Ubuntu
(when I don't use the nvidia driver) or the nvidia-settings (when I do
use the nvidia driver). However, I can't use any of them with
bumblebee.

As I'm switching all the time between the dock-station (with two
external screens) and the laptop only, I'm looking for a solution that
can detect easily in which situation I am. Thank you for your help.

Here is the information about my system:
$ cat /etc/issue
