You have to manually configure X in this case to use both devices
simultaneously (so long as the BIOS doesn't hide the igfx when a dgpu is
plugged in). In raring, though this should start to work semi-
automatically using nouveau with PRIME.

Title:
3+ monitors with discrete + Intel graphics (dual head) doesn't work
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
See here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/171222/3-monitors-nvidia-
intel-graphics/196914#196914
Seems impossible currently to use Intel integrated graphics
(Sandybridge in my case) alongside discrete card, regardless of
whether BIOS is configured to allow this. Integrated graphics do not
show up as VGA compatible in lspci when discrete card is connected,
leading me to believe this may be a low-level issue -- but works fine
on same hardware configuration in Windows.
