Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

When connecting an external monitor to a Dell Studio 15 laptop, either
when booting or after booting, the external monitor always remains
blank. However, when running the Monitors application, the external
monitor is detected and it seems like the desktop spans both the laptop
and the monitor as observed by moving the mouse to the right of the
laptop.
