Hallo,

i have the same problem under Xubuntu 14.04 and a brandnew HP Zbook 14.

At system boot my external vga screen was detected correctly and a few seconds after Xubuntu-XFCE-Login the external screen isn't available. At a few seconds i have seen the correct XFCE-desktop through the login process.

Here is my syslog-entry if i plug out an plug in the external vga-monitor:
[drm:intel_dp_aux_native_read] *ERROR* too many retries, giving up

The problem affects obviosly to a programming bug. See here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=93781 (Patch Intel i915).
