How to make dual head on intel hd graphics 4600 + wheezy?

There is a Dell OptiPlex 7020 system unit:
i7
Intel® HD Graphics 4600
The essence of the problem: I can not start a second monitor on this video card. Namely: images are duplicated on both monitors.
xrandr does not see the second port in principle (on the video displayports)

xrandr -q
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 1920 x 1200, current 1920 x 1200, maximum 1920 x 1200
default connected 1920x1200+0+0 0mm x 0mm
   1920x1200       0.0*

# uname -r 
3.16-0.bpo.3-amd64

and it's like it's not clear where to look.
The crux of the matter boils down to getting xrandr to see the display ports correctly. Has anyone had a similar experience?
PS There was an attempt to compile from here , but was unsuccessful.
I will be glad to any advice.
UPD: SOLUTION
In principle, the approach of the first author of the comment is quite correct, but I acted more clumsily and the problem was solved: I updated wheezy to jessie, with all the resulting updates, and everything was more than started.

Boot from livecd ubuntu 14.04, make sure what you need works and copy the configs.
