Public bug reported:

I'm attempting to run two external monitors using my laptop, in addition
to it's built-in display.

The machine I'm using is a HP Elitebook 8570p, and based on everything
that I've read, the machine id physically capable of doing what I want,
but the drivers don't seem to be able to allow it.

I can have either my monitor on the display port -OR- the monitor on the
VGA port active, but I can seem to get both to work at the same time.
