Hi Dariusz,

I think I have this part:
Manufacturer Part# : XX6F0 | Dell Part# : 331-6307
I am not sure if that is a DP hub, it is beyond my knowledge.
I used your kernel and the xserver-xorg-video intel driver from  URI was:
http://ppa.launchpad.net/pool/main/x/xserver-xorg-video-intel/xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.99.916+git20141016.6b98f162-0ubuntu0sarvatt~trusty_amd64.changelog
How does the xorg-edgers repo provide a driver?
I don't see it, while the repo is enabled.
When I had a fully working situation the last time, I did not see any
xserver-xorg-video-intel driver installed.
Is it another driver or package you are referring to?

Kind regards,
Vincent
