Title:
  [Macbook Pro 8,2] Screen blanks when calling vgaswitcheroo

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Hi
  By default when you try and switch graphics card on a Macbook Pro 8,2 from the ATI card to the Intel card , the screen is blanked and never turned on. This is due to the driver not knowing about the LVDS Panel mode since the machine was started with the discrete card on.

  This patch
  http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~mlankhorst/linux/commit/?id=ae7b687c2a57ec50a9d3dde7b0a80a262fdc8c8
  fixes graphics card switching.

  I have applied this patch on the 3.9.1 and 3.8.2 upstream kernels and
  it fixes the issue for me.

  Could this possibly be fixed for S and be SRU'd for Raring?
