[Bug 591929] Re: Dell Latitude E4310 Dual Monitors freezing

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  I have installed Lucid on E4310 and everything works fine. Now I'm
  trying to connect dual FullHD Dell screens via a docking station's DVI
  ports. First of all, if I boot the laptop while plugged into the dock,
  it just freezes as outlined below. If I first boot it and then plug into
  the dock, the following happens: in the System->Preferences->Monitor I
  can see 3 panels available: laptop LCD and two Dell monitors(those are
  off). However, when I try to disable e4310's panel and enable two Dell
  monitors, all screens just go blank and system completely freezes up. No
  SSH/Cltr+alt+bkspc/Cltr+alt+F1 possible. Also that is not a kernel panic
  as no keyboard lights are blinking.
  
  However everything works if I only enable the laptop's LCD and only one
  of the Dell monitors. I Have also tried disabling the laptop panel prior
  to enabling the second Dell monitor via lxrandr It allows me to
  completely disable the built-in panel(leaving just one DVI Dell running)
  but then as soon as I enable the second Dell, eveything just freezes the
  same way.
  
  Also after hours of fighting with this, I discovered that the problem
  doesn't happen if I boot the liveCD. I'm able to enable both DVI
  monitors on it just fine.
