Public bug reported:

Since months I turn the monitor, 2560x1440, that is connected via DP,
off when I leave work and turn it on when back next day and I always saw
my desktop again. After the reboot due to 2.6.38-13-generic installation
last week and then following reboot,   I get no DisplayPort signal
anymore when the monitor is turned off and on again.

We can reproduce this bug on second 'identical' system Dell OptiPlex 780
with Intel GFX running natty + Monitor via DP.

Unsucessful tries:

 * ALT-CTRL-F1 then ALT-CTRL-F7 did not help.  Still no DP Signal.
 * boot into rescue mode (so no X11). Still  no DP signal when I turn the 
monitor off/on. 
 * boot  outdated 2.6.38-12-generic (normal and rescue) that showed no problem 
before
    and still no DP signal after monitor off/on.

Working (but very inconvenient) workarounds to get a DP signal again
after monitor off/on:

  * remote login and xrandr --output DP1 --off; sleep 1; xrandr --output DP1 
--auto
or
  * connecting a second monitor via VGA,  this also turns the DP signal back to 
on.
    (turn VGA monitor off/on is not enough.  One has to unplug and connect VGA 
again
    to get the DP signal again)


Note:  VGA signal is not affected.  I can turn the VGA monitor off/on and VGA 
Signal is always 
there. Only  DP receive no signal after off/on.

I see this bugs since reboot:

  reboot   system boot  2.6.38-13-generi Tue Jan 31 18:39 - 18:48
(00:09)

last reboot before this was

 reboot   system boot  2.6.38-13-generi Thu Jan 19 16:59 - 18:33
(12+01:34)
