2016-08-17 21:58:23 Daniel Gimpelevich description xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.99.904 adds support for virtual displays that can be used to clone to discrete outputs. The tool to do this is included with the xserver-xorg-video-intel source (with not-so-great man page and all), but the binary is currently not shipped by Ubuntu. The tool will allocate a virtual output for the specified outputs on a different X server (or for all outputs with the -a parameter). It will also copy over resolution information etc from xrandr. You can then use your desktop environment's display tool to configure these external displays the way you would normally do in a non-hybrid situation. [Impact] xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.99.904 adds support for virtual displays that can be used to clone to discrete outputs. The tool to do this is included with the xserver-xorg-video-intel source (with not-so-great man page and all), but the binary is currently not shipped by Ubuntu trusty, despite being built. It is shipped in utopic and later. The tool will allocate a virtual output for the specified outputs on a different X server (or for all outputs with the -a parameter). It will also copy over resolution information etc from xrandr. You can then use your desktop environment's display tool to configure these external displays the way you would normally do in a non-hybrid situation. Since the trusty release is LTS, this bug qualifies for SRU status "to enable new hardware," or rather, newly supported at the time of the trusty release. [Test Case] 1) Install the package. 2) Attempt to execute /usr/bin/intel-virtual-output in a shell. [Regression Potential] Absolutely none. [Other Info] The intel-gpu-tools package is the only reverse dependency, and that package has no reverse dependencies in turn.
