[Bug 1530171] Re: [Regression] Thinkpad dock: External monitors not recognized after 15.04 upgrade

 

aexl, at your earliest convenience, could you please test the latest
upstream kernel available from the very top line at the top of the page
from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D (the release
names are irrelevant for testing, and please do not test the daily
folder)? Install instructions are available at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds . This will allow
additional upstream developers to examine the issue.

If testing on your main install would be inconvenient, one may:
1) Install Ubuntu to a different partition and then test this there.
2) Backup, or clone the primary install.

If the latest kernel did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this issue is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon, next to the word Tags, located at the bottom of the report description:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Where X, and Y are the first two numbers of the kernel version, and Z is
the release candidate number if it exists.

If the mainline kernel does not fix the issue, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Please note, an error to install the kernel does not fit the criteria of
kernel-bug-exists-upstream.

Once testing of the latest upstream kernel is complete, please mark this
report's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  [Regression] Thinkpad dock: External monitors not recognized after
  15.04 upgrade

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  External monitors are not recognized in display settings when plugged
  into any dock port.

  They *are* recognized after a reboot (not after logout).
  After plugging out and the in again they are not recognized.

  A monitor plugged in and out of the non-dock VGA is recognized instantly.
  After plugging in or out of the non-dock VGA, monitors plugged to dock ports are recognized (which serves as a crazy workaround for me now)
  (update: this works sometimes, sometimes not).

  Everything used to work with 14.10, but stopped with 15.04.

  A recent test with 1510 live CD did not fix this.
