No DisplayPort

**holysword** · January 22nd, 2016

Hello

After googling a while, I realized that many people had this problem before, but their solution do not seem fitting in my case.
Basically I have a laptop with one DisplayPort (as well as a MiniDisplayPort) to connect external screens. Sadly, it does nothing. The only port that works is the VGA port.

Most people solved this problem yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaars ago by using nvidia-settings or whatever, but I don't have an nvidia card.
This is the output of my lshw:
http://pastebin.com/jL2fTCw0

The videocard reported in lspci is "Intel Corporation Broadwell-U Integrated Graphics"
Isn't DP yet supported in 14.04's kernel? Or is there something else?
Also, I am using KUbuntu.

What kernel version are you using ?

Code:

uname -a

What does it say in X's log ? Any clues in there ?

Code:

cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Kind regards

Hi

Just to get one thing absolutely clear: the external monitor was connected to a display port on your laptop and the monitor switched on, when you ran the xrandr command above and it displayed, as part of its output, this:

Code:

DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

Kind regards

Yes. Incredible isn't it?
Now, to be totally honest I am using a docking station. The ACTUAL laptop only has a miniDisplayPort, and currently I don't have the cable to test it (though I had it borrowed at some point). I am not 100% sure it will work if I plug it directly.

Checking Lenovo website I found this:
https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht081248

So if there is one of such a bugs, there might be more. I will check it later if there is an update the firmware of the docking station.

Be very suspicious of the docking station; that it is not the source of the problem.

Beg, borrow or steal a miniDisplayPort cable to eliminate it.

Yep
