[Bug 557436] Re: [GM45] [upgrade] [regression] [lucid]: external monitor only usable via DVI, not via DP

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
  I have a Dell Latitude E6400 with docking station on a Dell 2408WFP
  monitor. This used to be connected via Display Port "DP1"  in Ubuntu
  Karmic and worked to use the monitor's preferred 1920x1200 16:10 mode.
  
  After upgrade to Lucid, the DP1 connection no longer works. The monitor
  is detected properly, listed in display-settings or xrandr -q, but
  enabling it via display-settings or xrandr --output DP1 --preferred (or
  xrandr --output DP1 --auto) does not wake the monitor from energy save,
  it remains off.
  
  Workaround: connect monitor to DVI port (listed as HDMI2 in xrandr) and
  configure that.
