I have just tried running the 3.14.0-031400 kernel, but it wouldn't boot (kernel panic).

I will try running Ubuntu 14.04 daily build and report what happens.

When I run the live USB version of Ubuntu 14.04 it starts out with good colors, but with desktop on both the laptop screen and the external monitor connected with HDMI.

After I go to system settings and change it to use only the external monitor - the colors go crazy (greeny-pinkish all over).

Then, changing back to both screens doesn't help. It just displays wrong colors on the external screen no matter what setttings I use afterwards.

The logs above are collected before I fiddled with the display settings.

Logs collected after the colors have gone crazy will follow.

Joseph Salisbury (jsalisbury) wrote : Test with newer development kernel (3.13.0-24.46)

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report on this issue.

However, given the number of bugs that the Kernel Team receives during any development cycle it is impossible for us to review them all. Therefore, we occasionally resort to using automated bots to request further testing. This is such a request.

  With the recent release of this Ubuntu release, would like to confirm if this bug is still present. Please test again with the newer kernel and indicate in the bug if this issue still exists or not.

You can update to the latest development kernel by simply running the following commands in a terminal window:

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

If the bug still exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to Confirmed. If the bug no longer exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to Fix Released.

If you want this bot to quit automatically requesting kernel tests, add a tag named: bot-stop-nagging.

 Thank you for your help, we really do appreciate it.

I have checked again with latest Live USB image of 14.04.

uname -r says it is 3.13.0-32-generic

The bug is still there, symptoms exactly the same as per comment #22

Because of this issue, I have been stuck with Ubuntu 12.04 ever since.
