Bug description:
  SRU request:

  Please accept gnome-desktop3 (3.4.2-0ubuntu0.2) in precise-proposed
  and gnome-desktop3 (3.8.4-0ubuntu1.1) in saucy-proposed.

  [Impact]
  In Precise and Saucy, we support hybrid graphics, and this issue prevents users from enabling external screens (the ones connected to the Intel card), and to benefit from all the features that the gnome-settings-daemon provides (font settings, input settings, theming, etc.).

  [Test Case]
  After installing the update, users should be able to open the Displays configuration tool, and the gnome-settings-daemon will be running (as shown by the "ps aux | grep gnome-settings-daemon" command).

  [Regression Potential]
  None. We simply trap and ignore an error when setting the primary output, as the rest of the program already does when getting the primary output.
