Bug Description
Binary package hint: xorg
This is likely to be a duplicate of bug #591929.
On the same hardware (Dell Latitude E4310), X freezes any time I try to add an external monitor/projector via the VGA port.
Also in my case the LiveCD works correctly.
I am using the laptop VGA port, and not a docking station as #591929.
Moreover, I have tried installing Maverick, without any success (the bug is the same in Lucid and Maverick).
