Title:
  External screen on mini-DisplayPort no longer detected

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  My laptop has a mini-DisplayPort and an HDMI port to which I can
  connect external monitors. When I plug it in into the HDMI port, it is
  properly recognised but when I plug it into the mini-DisplayPort,
  Unity fails to recognise the display. This used to work in 12.10.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Plug in the external display to the HDMI port via an HDMI adapter: the Unity display extends to the second monitor
  2. Plug the same display to the mini-DisplayPort adapter: the screen stay blank
  3. Open System Settings -> Displays: the external monitor is no detected.
