Re: No Signal from Laptop Dock Station to Monitor via DVI
The first thing I'd try is to read the man page for your video card
driver. I had a similar (but not dvi) situation with my Dell C600 and
video from the port replicator. I had to edit my XF86Config file to get
it to work. My video driver is "r128" so I read "man r128" and found
the answer.
Best of luck.

I have a Dock Station at work that has both VGA and DVI outputs.
With
the VGA output, I can get a signal to my external flat-panel display.
However, the monitor indicates that there is no signal via the DVI
connection.
The cable and connection are fine, as it works in XP. ;(
Any thoughts on what might need to be done to resolve this for Linux?
My guess would be a kernel module to tweak the dock station settings.
Anyone know of a project that is working on this?
BTW, FC1, 2.4.2174 kernel on a Dell D600.
Thanks!
