Is there a specific version I should test? I see 3.11-rc5 mentioned, but
3.11.0-1-generic was installed as an update when I did a dist-upgrade
earlier today, and the bug is still present there. Given that, I would
also expect the bug to be present in upstream 3.11-rc5.

Also, this is not trivial to test. The machine is mounted in a rack,
with little space to access the DVI ports, and it's a production use
workstation PC. Every time I test this, I have to stop any work I may be
doing, power off the machine, wedge myself in to be able to adjust the
cables, and on occasion have to muck about in BIOS so that the right
driver is used (internal vs. nvidia pcie), reboot with whatever kernel,
and then muck about in settings to see if it triggers everything. It's
not a test system I can just upgrade, reboot, and check new kernels at
will. So unless there is some specific set of changes in a new kernel
which points to the possibility of the issue being fixed, I'd prefer not
to waste my time, or the kernel developers', trying to test things that
won't work.

Title:
  8086:0162 [Intel DQ77MK] Multiple Displays not working

Status in X.Org X server:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” source package in Precise:

Bug description:
  I have an Intel DQ77MK motherboard, which has 2 DVI connectors, and a
  Core i7 3770S IvyBridge CPU. Under Ubuntu 12.04, the multiple display
  support does not work, and I am stuck with a single display. The
  second screen only shows all pixels as 100% red. Enabling the second
  screen in Displays in System Settings does allow me to move windows
  and the mouse cursor to that screen, though I cannot actually see
  anything on it, as everything is red. For now I have had to force it
  to mirror displays, to avoid moving things to the second screen.

  Also, on the daily live image for Quantal, the system appears to
  freeze when X starts, and I am left with the primary screen being
  black, and the secondary screen being full red. The plymouth
  framebuffer is a fuzzy green image, and everything turns black when X
  comes up.
