Laptop monitor turns off when external monitors plugged in
Just a heads up, I'm brand new to ubuntu and linux as a whole, so go easy
on me.
I just installed ubuntu 13.04 on my Thinkpad T430. A few bumps along the
way, but I'm learning this new system quickly.
I have two external monitors plugged in through the dock I have for the
laptop, plus a USB-to-DVI adapter that is functioning properly. However,
when I dock my laptop, the laptop monitor itself shuts off and I only get
the 3 external. I'd like to have all four monitors working at once.
When I go into Display under System Settings, and turn on the laptop
monitor, I get a timeout error.
Normally I would say this is a video card problem, but last week I was
running 12.04 and everything was working properly. I did clean install to
upgrade to 13.04.
Hopefully you guys can help me out, thanks!
EDIT:
Super + P cycles between the following:
Laptop monitor only
Mirrored on external monitors (laptop monitor is off)
3 External monitors extended view (laptop monitor is off)
In Additional Drivers, it only says "no proprietary drivers in use". There
are no options in the window to choose any different drivers, and there
are none listed.
