When switch screen to clone mode(LCD+external VGA/HDMI) or external mode(VGA/HDMI only) using the following command, the external screen will become white and show nothing. attached log is error code. This only happens on Lenovo Yx10 Sharkbay platform, Ivy bridge is OK.

         Clone mode(LCD+external VGA): xrandr --output eDP1 --mode 1024x768 --output VGA1 --mode 1024x768(the shared resolution ratio of eDP and VGA)
         External mode(VGA only): xrandr --output eDP1 --off --output VGA1 --mode 1366x768(the highest resolution ratio, it is different on different computer)
