With just your xorg ppa packages installed, I get one of the variants of
misbehaviour previously encountered, specifically:

at the gdm prompt, internal only
after logging in (to classic): blank on both
after pressing fn-f7, internal-only works, joined works, mirrored works, but external-only is black on both

When I had this before it was not stable and sometimes would get stuck
with no monitors, or show the flashing display.

I will try the intel kernel next.
