Captain Chaos, ouf my bad. I was scanning for "VGA compatible
controller" and the nvidia card is "3D controller" (first time I've seen
it this way).

Despite this, in Raring with stock Ubuntu kernel, if you remove the non-default kernel parameters:
"acpi_osi=!Windows 2012" acpi_backlight=vendor

does this change anything?

As well, were you using non-default kernel parameters in your Saucy
test?

Also, did this problem not occur in a release prior to Raring?

Title:
  Hangs booting with HDMI+VGA divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP; RIP:
  0010:[<ffffffffa01eec90>] [<ffffffffa01eec90>]
  nve4_graph_init+0x250/0x7e0 [nouveau]

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

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!
