Title:
  [trusty] [drm] HPD interrupt storm detected on connector DP-1:
  switching from hotplug detection to polling

Status in xserver-xorg-video-intel package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a haswell motherboard with 3 1080p monitors connected, 2
  directly via HDMI and a 3rd HDMI connected to an active displayport
  dongle. The monitor on the displayport connection had been working
  fairly reliably until I decided to finally upgrade my bios to fix some
  other issues (big mistake, since I late found out its nearly
  impossible to downgrade). Since I upgraded the monitor nearly never
  works, I did get it to show display a few times but I'm not sure how
  that happened. At the moment while researching information to add to
  this post it actually started working for the moment. When I run
  xrandr it causes the screens to blink rapidly for around 30sec-1min.
  Most of the time the system is unresponsive while the monitor is
  plugged in. It appears to occasionally cause the entire desktop to
  stop responding until the mate-session is killed.

  In dmesg I see instances of:

  [   10.053292] [drm] HPD interrupt storm detected on connector DP-1: switching from hotplug detection to polling
  [  240.125029] [drm] HPD interrupt storm detected on connector DP-1: switching from hotplug detection to polling

  Also fwiw I get different errors, and a kernel backtrace, but still no
  display on current drm-intel-nightly from here:

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/drm-intel-nightly/

  And of course it all still works fine under Windows 8.1.

  Searching google I see other instances of people with the same problem
  on the i915 driver on other systems like ThinkPad, etc.
