Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

I cannot hook up an external monitor or beamer to my Dell Latitude E6510 using the VGA port. When I open the "monitors" dialogue, the screen goes black if there is a VGA cable plugged in. Only alt-sysrq-REISUB works to restart the computer. 
The chip is an intel one (intel core i5), not nvidia. 
I tried the xorg-edgers PPA to see if newer packages fix the problem, but that is not the case.
