Berend De Schouwer, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-intel REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

So the hardware supports it. xrandr lists: LVDS1 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 1366x768 59.9 + VGA1 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 477mm x 268mm 1920x1080 60.0*+ (other resolutions cut from the output) gdm starts on both monitors. As soon as I log in, LVDS1 goes off. I can enable the second monitor in SystemSettings->Displays, and even click on "keep configuration" but it doesn't activate. It's disabled in software somewhere. I say that because the message tray at the bottom is in a different location when both monitors are active. So there is a software detect-monitor-size that moves the message tray, and it's almost always where it would be for single monitors. Worked fine in Gnome-Shell 3.0.0.
