Hi,

Lenovo W520. Mint 13 (Maya) 64bit with MATE.

Boot freezes with Discrete Graphics selected on BIOS.

I am also annoyed by this bug, since I need to attach an external
monitor on a daily basis.

Best workaround I found: booting W7 (booo!), then using Virtual Box to
run Mint off its partition (raw vmdk). Virtual machine configured with
two virtual screens. I know, it's a hack, but it does the job, and
performance-wise doesn't look that terrible. I can work this way.

Waiting for this bug to be fixed to move back to native Linux :-(
