Hi Christopher,

Thank you for the feedback. I've done a bit of digging around and what
you are saying is accurate, my BIOS is currently out of date.

I spent an hour or so trying to get my BIOS to update from what I was
able to extract from the .exe file that HP has made available for
download, but I have not yet had any success.

My colleague (same Make & Model machine) will make an attempt at it when
he gets a chance, and I will update this thread again if one of us
manages to come right with this.

Thanks again for the feedback.

Title:
  Trying to run 2 external displays on my Laptop

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm attempting to run two external monitors using my laptop, in
  addition to it's built-in display.

  The machine I'm using is a HP Elitebook 8570p, and based on everything
  that I've read, the machine id physically capable of doing what I
  want, but the drivers don't seem to be able to allow it.

  I can have either my monitor on the display port -OR- the monitor on
  the VGA port active, but I can seem to get both to work at the same
  time.
