(These are copied from the Launchpad bug - I figure they would be of use
here.)

I did a dist-upgrade of my machine, as well as installing the latest
Kernel you linked and have some interesting results:

1) I now need the 'noapic' flag in my boot options again.
Is this the same bug, or a different issue?
I have another bug open about this already: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/903558

2) The 'xrandr --output LVDS1 --off; xrandr --output LVDS1 --auto'
command succeeds in turning on the other monitor some times. Compiz
keeps crashing through, but it does switch on occasionally.

3) I did some testing with the Display settings and my Laptop monitor
works on 1360x768 and smaller, but the two larger resolutions, 1440x900
and 1600x900 don't work.

I just did an upgrade and have discovered that if I boot into 12.04 with a 
second monitor, go into the Display Settings, ensure my laptop monitor is 
enabled with the right reso (1600x900), clicking 'Apply' switches on the 
monitor!
But it appears it will only switch on when the external is enabled too, so I 
can't make it happen without an external monitor there and activated.

So I guess the question is, why can't it start up the monitor on boot?
