[Bug 1040053] Re: [Dell XPS 15 L502X] no HDMI support with dual grafic card in Ubuntu 12.04LTS with 3.2.0-29-generic
asgard2, as per
http://www.dell.com/support/troubleshooting/us/en/19/Product/xps-l502x
an update is available for your BIOS (A12). If you update to this, does
it change anything?
If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.
Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
[Dell XPS 15 L502X] no HDMI support with dual grafic card in Ubuntu
12.04LTS with 3.2.0-29-generic
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I have a DELL XPS 15 L502x notebook with intel HD and Nvidia GeForce GT 540M graphic card.
installed:
Ubuntu 12.04LTS with 3.2.0-29-generic, newest nvidia driver with bumblebee
The HDMI port is not working.

second monitor is plugged in on HDMI but is not recognized:

VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
HDMI1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
A indirect solution is to connect the monitor on the mini DP
connector over a DP adapter:
$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 3286 x 1080, maximum 8192 x 8192

640x480 75.0 60.0

DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
I hope this could be fixed. Not everybody can use the DP port.
