I have  a Dell XPS 14 laptop and two Dell U2414H monitors I am trying to
make them work as two separate displays using MST under Ubuntu 14.04.

>From my laptop outputs a DisplayPort cable to the first monitor
DisplayPort input, then from this first monitor, outputs another
DisplayPort cable to the second one. All I get is the two U2414H
monitors mirrored, and they show up in Ubuntu display settings as a
single monitor.

If applicable in my setup I would like to test any patch possible. Here
are my devices from lspci (Notice I also have a Nvidia card which
appears as 3D Controller device)
