[Bug 1040053] Re: [Dell XPS 15 L502X] no HDMI support with dual grafic card in Ubuntu 12.04LTS with 3.2.0-29-generic
ok, you are right. there is a new bios version.
$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
A11
05/29/2012
After upgrade:
$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
A12
09/07/2012
I updated and booted the live image, it is the same as before.
The screen is recognized after the second hdmi cable plugin try.
using
xrandr --auto
activates VGA-1, after I saw this
http://www0.xup.in/exec/ximg.php?fid=13581600
I deactivated VGA-1 with "xrandr --output VGA-1 --off", the most artefacts are gone.
But it is still slow on dual screen and I can not change to the notebook screen (is is frozen) or the screen is cloned.

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:
$ xrandr

LVDS1 connected 1366x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 194mm

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
720x400 70.1
DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
I hope this could be fixed. Not everybody can use the DP port.
