I'm running Ubuntu Gnome 15.04 64-bits kernel 3.19.0-15-generic
on a Dell Vostro 3460 with Intel + Nvidia card. I have installed the nvidia-349
drivers from xorg-edgers
ppa. Everything is working fine, nvidia-prime and all, but when I plug my HDMI monitor to the laptop, the screen goes black instantly, and nothing changes until I'll unplug it.
I've installed the nvidia drivers from the ppa because this problem was already happening with the default proprietary graphic drivers.
Previously I had installed Linux Mint 17.1 with the same drivers and everything working fine.
What can I do to solve this problem? Can this be a Gnome Shell specific problem, or is it a system issue?
