Description Matt Powell 2010-08-31 09:29:11 UTC 
FC13 x64, Xorg 1.8+, Intel i915 2.12+, and latest kernel 2.6.36-RC2 on OEM IBEX (Calpella) based platform (DELL E6410) fails to activate DisplayPort interface.  

Revalidating bug, if reproduced again, will add logs / outputs

Would be worth checking Jesse's eDP fixes:

Any news on this one?  I've had vague reports of DP problems, but nothing concrete so far (aside from all the eDP stuff, but that's a separate issue).

I was able to get DispalyPort functional on Kernel 2.6.35, Xorg 1.8.0.99, Intel driver 2.12 - this was also on FC14 alpha (HP 8440p) Calpella based.  I suspect the particular version of xorg with FC13 was the source of the problem.  I'm considering it closed.
