Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears
to be a "regular" (non-security) bug.  I have unmarked it as a security
issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to
cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy.
Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

Title:
  two graphics adapter for the notebook

Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  dv6 notebook 3190sl (HP) there are two graphics adapters (AMD) , the
  first discrete ( HD5xxx Series) , the second for energy saving (
  HD4xxx Series) ...

  The problem is that you can not use the discrete GPU , the GPU uses
  only ever HD4xxx energy saving

  
  is there a way to activate the first discrete graphics card and make it the default ?

  
  P.S.: there are no options in the bios.
