[Bug 1163090] [NEW] multi monitor install bug

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I'm trying to run a 1 April 2013 daily build kubuntu 13.04 dvd. [This is
not an april fools joke, the same problem happens with a build from
about 2 weeks ago]

I suspect its a multi-monitor issue.

The system has an ATI HD 7870 connected by DVI-D and an VGA monitor
connected by integrated graphics to the VGA monitor. Bios enebles both.
Windows 8 boots fine, but Kubuntu 13.04 daily build 1 April 2013 does
not work fine [and same for build from about 2 weeks ago] with both
monitors connected, but works ok if VGA monitor is disconnected [no
change in bios settings]

The bug is that if only DVI-D monitor is connected, when I choose "try
kubuntu", there is a splash screen where about 5 peripherals bounce
(hard disk, wrench, etc.),  but if it is dual monitor, during the second
"peripheral" [forgot what it is], I am presented with a login screen
that asks me for some credentials that I do not have, and regardless of
what I enter, there is not error, and it goes nowhere.

I can upload screenshot if requested.

Best regards,
