Public bug reported:

CID: 201107-8258 Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E525

With the D-Sub cable connected to an external monitor, this system was unable 
to use "Mirror" or "Extended" display mode.
Verified with the highest and lowest resolution, the problem still exist.
Desktop could be display on external / laptop monitor only.

However, these two display mode works fine with radeon driver on HDMI output, 
and this D-Sub output issue could be fixed by installing the proprietary driver.
The brightness control issue (bug 1243508) will make this bug becomes a blocker 
as well.

Radeon driver version:
ubuntu@201107-8258:~$ dpkg -l | grep radeon
ii libdrm-radeon1 2.4.43-0ubuntu0.0.2 Userspace interface to radeon-specific
