Hello,

In the new Ubuntu version 14.04.5 stops work my second monitor (connected using mini displayport). He blinks all the time, dmsg spamsthe folowing error:

Can you try a newer kernel? I'm afraid some fixes which might be relevant for the "Pageflip completion event has impossible msc" messages have only landed in 4.9-rc though.

I'm not sure the issues with the second monitor are directly related to those messages though. Might be related to this instead:

Assuming this is fixed with current kernels & xf86-video-ati, otherwise please reopen.
