Title:
  [Asus K55DR] When VGA plugged into laptop, only one monitor working at
  a time

Status in xserver-xorg-video-ati package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

  When my ASUS VW193 external monitor is connected to the VGA port of my
  laptop (AMD Radeon 7470m) internal laptop monitor stops working. Using
  the Unity Control Center I'm able to set laptop monitor as primary
  which disables external monitor (and vice-versa). Tried manual switch
  to mainline Linux 4.5 kernel, same thing. Tested on 14.04, 15.10,
  16.04, 17.04 and 17.10 (develop branch) with same results.

  However, if I plug the Asus monitor into the laptop via VGA, plug my
  Vox TV into the laptop via HDMI, and set the resolution to 1280x720,
  it displays fine on both the monitor and TV.

  Also, the internal monitor and just HDMI together show properly.

  However, if I adjust to 1080i, the above working dual screen configurations 
show a graphical glitch:
