Title:
  new alienware laptop won't boot with 2 external monitors connected

Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  -I bought a new alienware laptop with nvidia GT 650M graphics card and 
onboard Intel HD 4000 video
  (http://www.dell.com/us/p/alienware-m14x-r2/pd.aspx, click tech specs to see 
hardware)
  -I installed windows 7
  -I installed Ubunutu 12.04
  -installed grub
  -system worked on the laptop, no external monitors yet
  -connected external monitors (one vga, one hdmi, one displayport). Only 2 
worked, the displayport monitor not recognized at all
  -I upgraded all of my packages via the update manager
  -rebooted
  -when my system booted up, I got a blank screen. I tried rebooting a few 
times, trying the recovery mode into basic graphics but that didn't help.
  -I unplugged everything including my external monitors and then rebooted, and 
then my system booted properly and then I could plug in my 2 external monitors 
again and everything worked.
  -I tested a couple of times and if I have the monitors plugged in I get 
various errors like 'bad lun' or graphics error during boot, errors shown in 
the console, no gui

  Cheers,

  Mark
