These are working with 16.04 perfectly, I updated to 16.10 and had to restore from backups to get back to 16.10. Then I booted from the live-cd to capture this bug.

Scenarios:
 1. mDP to HDMI cable connected to a 1080p monitor (Dell E248Wfp); that is the simple example and they all fail with the same result.
 2. same Dell via DP2 on the doc using a DP to single-link DVI adapter (like http://www.monoprice.com/product?c_id=104&cp_id=10428&cs_id=1042801&p_id=4827)
 3. DP2 on the doc connected to a Shimian LCD running at 2560x1440 connected via a Dell (BizLink) DisplayPort to DVI Dual Link Adapter (like https://www.amazon.com/Dell-BIZLINK-DisplayPort-Adapter-Powered/dp/B003XYBA72). But I didn't want to confuse the issue with that more niche bit of hardware.
