[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1552040] Re: [Lenovo ThinkPad T440s] Laptop sometimes doesn't detect external monitor
Tried the first workaround, the X.org conf.d snippet, and this has helped a great deal. Although, sometimes the lock screen acts up and shows my windows, toolbars and is weirdly unresponsive after resuming from suspend. I suppose that could be a different bug, perhaps with Gnome or Gnome Shell? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1552040 Title: [Lenovo ThinkPad T440s] Laptop sometimes doesn't detect external monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1552040/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1552040] Re: [Lenovo ThinkPad T440s] Laptop sometimes doesn't detect external monitor
Strange though, I did not have this problem at all in 18.04. Only occurred now after upgrading to 18.10. What changed? The kernel patch linked to is from 2016, and a lot of the other bug reports are older as well. Is it a regression of a sort? I have a Thinkpad X270 (latest BiOS - 1.33) and this is driving me nuts. Luckily I came across this bug report so I'll at least have a couple of workarounds to try out :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1552040 Title: [Lenovo ThinkPad T440s] Laptop sometimes doesn't detect external monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1552040/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I had the exact same problem but with a dell xps15 9550 with a thunderbolt to display port in MsT mode with 2 external screens.

Sergey Menshikov, it is most helpful if you use the computer the problem is reproducible with, and file a new report with Ubuntu via a terminal: ubuntu-bug linux Please feel free to subscribe me to it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1552040 Title: [Lenovo ThinkPad T440s] Laptop sometimes doesn't detect external monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1552040/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

My workaround is to enable GuC firmware loading and boot without the dock attached. Kernel 4.15.0.30 Ubuntu 18.04.1 Xorg/Gnome Lenovo 4th gen X1 20FBxxx Skylake i7 Intel built-in video Looks like this is some kind of race condition related to DisplayPort Multi-Stream mode (DP-MST). This is why multi-monitor docking stations are affected. A race is happening, with system attempting modesetting upon disconnect of the mst dock, which leaves the connector enabled.
