Hi,

just tried the latest nightly of ubuntu (2015/02/15 iso)
lsb_release -d
Description: Ubuntu Vivid Vervet (development branch)

Still no change... The monitor is detected when plugged in (appears in dmesg) but it is not recognized by the system and thus, can't be use...

Status of the problem is still unchanged so far...
