xserver-xorg-video-intel doesnt recognise mini displayport on Intel HD4400

[Chris Jackson]

1) Ubuntu 13.10 (also tried 12.04.3)
2) 2:2.99.904-0ubuntu2
3) Multiple displays recognised and available under "displays"
4) Only 1 monitor (HDMI) available on Gigabyte Brix I7-4500U the mini display port is not recognised when plugged by adapter to and HDMI monitor. The HDMI port works for single display use multiple monitors not working as yet. Suspect xserver-xorg-video-intel doesnt have capability for dual screen by HDMI and mini displayport, or require updated Intel drivers.

You are not using the -intel driver. Try doing so first.

Chris,

Thanks for your advice, i am hoping the Intel driver does fix it when it is
eventually released. Thought would identify the non-Intel drivers dont
allow dual display as a bug. Sorry to waste your time.
