The DGX Station A10 has various display options. The BMC provides an
emulated device (Aspeed controller), a physical BMC controller (NVIDIA
Quadro T1000 Mobile), and a discrete GPU card with 4 DisplayPort outputs
(A100 SXM4 80GB). See the user guide[*] for a diagram.
In a default Ubuntu Desktop 22.04 ('jammy') install, nothing appears on
the A100 DisplayPort output.
NVIDIA DGX OS - a derivative of Ubuntu - works around this by installing
a service that generates an xorg config file dynamically based on the
"OnBrd/Ext VGA Select" setting (aka "dmidecode -t 11"). I'll attach
samples of those files here. Replacing the default Ubuntu xorg.conf file
with the sample xorg-nvidia.conf file on a default Ubuntu Desktop
install is confirmed to enable output.
