Yeah good to know that the error is reproducible. I'm not yet entirely convinced that we have the same problem. Maybe trying to use xrandr directly instead of gnome-display-settings would shed some light on this.

In the meanwhile I got sure we really have the same/a similar graphics chip.

This is the corresponding output from my laptop.
ad 2.: now it freezes soon after I login - before the desktop is fully loaded, it seems that gnome tries to restore the settings that lead to the freeze.
