I downloaded a copy of 12.10 Alpha 3, made a boot disk and ran the live CD. With just the DisplayPort connection, the monitor displayed the bios, then the low res screen with the keyboard icon at the bottom, then the screen went blank and the monitor turned off. I eventually heard the bongo drum sound where one chooses between the install and run the live CD, but the srceen never turned back on.
I tried again with my Dual Link DVI and HDMI connections, this worked, and I was able to set up the display properly. I tried switching the HDMI monitor to DisplayPort, but the "Detect Monitors" button still refused to detect it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1035556 Title: Driver won't detect monitor on DisplayPort [Radeon HD 4850] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1035556/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
