[Bug 1225646] Re: Ubuntu hangs when booting laptop with HDMI and VGA monitors attached
I tried the latest development release (as of 27-9-2013), but it won't
boot at all on my Optimus laptop, even with no external monitors
attached. It crashes with a "divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP" somewhere in
nouveau. I'll attach a photo of the screen. I don't know how to capture
the actual text.

Title:
Ubuntu hangs when booting laptop with HDMI and VGA monitors attached
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I have a bto 15CL58 laptop, a Haswell laptop which has integrated
Intel graphics as well as an NVidia GTX765M with the Optimus system
for switching between the integrated and discrete GPU.
When I try to boot Ubuntu 13.04 on it while having an HDMI monitor as
well as a VGA monitor attached to the laptop, Ubuntu hangs. It shows
the graphical Ubuntu logo with the dots underneath and then just sits
there. Windows has no problem with this configuration, so I know the
hardware can do it. If I remove the VGA connection Ubuntu does boot
(and allows me to use the integrated display as well as the HDMI
monitor).
WORKAROUND: Note that after upgrading the kernel to 3.11 (from
~kernel-ppa/mainline) and installing the updated NVidia proprietary
driver packages from ~xorg-edgers (since after the kernel update the
kernel module doesn't compile), it *does* work!
