Hi All;
I'm running Fedora 21 on a Dell M3800 laptop, been working great.
Updating to the latest kernel however breaks my external display
i.e. I plug the external monitor in and nothing happens, previous to the
update when I plug in the external monitor
the system would auto configure the second screen and I could use both
monitors.
I've googled the issue but not found anything.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance
10:44 a.m.
Hi,
I'm not running F21 anymore so I'm not sure if this apply but, did you
check the updates-testing repo?
Kernel 4.1.5 has been working very nice since the last couple of weeks or
so.
Cheers

Update:
I'm actually updated to kernel 4.1.5-100, as opposed to the 4.1.4
indicated in my subject line.
Also when I plug in the external monitor I get this via dmesg:
[ 49.612966] nouveau E[ PBUS][0000:02:00.0] MMIO write of

Several thoughts come to mind...
1. What desktop are you using? GNOME. KDE, xfce, something else?
2. Did you try going back to a working kernel?
3. It seems as if you're saying you've booted without the monitor attached and
plug it in later? Yes? If so, have you tried booting with the monitor already attached?
Or, attaching the monitor and then logging out/in?

KDE
2. Did you try going back to a working kernel?
Yes, I had an
rsync of the system from before the updae, running now
with kernel 4.0.8-200 and it works
3. It seems as if you're saying you've booted without the

I've tried all of the above with the updated kernel, no luck. The second
screen remains blank and I cannot move the mouse past the edge of the
laptop screen irrespective of if I boot / login with the monitor
attached or not
I'm running the nouveau driver and an lspci shows I have this video card:
NVIDIA Corporation GK107GLM [Quadro K1100M] (rev a1)

OK....
I think I see what is happening as I ran into this a while back myself and just tested it
on an Acer Laptop running F22/KDE
Bring up "System Settings" and go to "Hardware--->Display and
Monitior-->Display Configuration". Assuming you see both monitors, make sure
they are aligned as they are physically. Position them and hit apply.
Then move your mouse to the "blank" monitor. If it is want I think it is, the
arrow pointer will "disappear". Then right click and with any luck a dialog box
will appear and you'll be able to select either "Desktop" or "Folder
View" settings an pick a background. Initially, I found that the background is
"black" and it just looks like the display is not working.
