So what I did is booting with the dock attached and the monitor connected through the HDMI port. After this I logged into a tty and did: dmesg > dmesg_drm* then dmesg -w >> dmesg_drm* After this I waited a bit and logged into another tty which starts an X server. And I just switched a bit between the X server and the tty. In one case, I got a blackscreen and could not do anything anymore (dmesg_drm2) so I had to poweroff the laptop by pressing the power button. I'm currently typing this from the other attached boot. I can use the X server normally but the monitor does not show anything despite xrandr telling that it is connected.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> <li>You are on the CC list for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
