If the machine also has Windows on, it would be worth checking the cable works there, there are all sorts of displayport cables (active/passive and various other options) and it's easy to get the wrong one. > The monitor has also HDMI (although the laptop does not).

I'm using the displayport connector on an X220 connecting to the DVI connector on an old-ish dell monitor, I have a script which does these which I use when I dock to enable the external monitor and disable the internal one. This took a bit of working out, there is an easier way but something went wrong with it, iirc I lost the cursor or something. xrandr --output HDMI-3 --right-of LVDS --auto xrandr --output LVDS --off In any event xrandr is the first command to investigate when you want to adjust display options like this.
