BIOS was upgraded:

$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
8BET62WW (1.42 )
07/26/2013

However, that did not change anything. With 331.113 the same problem exists.

I have also made tests with docking station and two external displays. The results:

1. LightDM login screen is OK
2. Dual monitors from docking station with laptop screen turned off: OK
3. Three monitors from docking station with laptop screen turned on: FAIL
Laptop screen is turned on, but is black. Cursor can be seen on it, i.e. mouse can move to laptop screen, but windows cannot be dragged and icons (i.e. X desktop begins at) are on second display. Screenshot is also attached.
4. Reverted to 331.38: three monitor setup is OK.

Attachments will follow.
