--- Comment #2 from Tyson Whitehead
Looking at your connector table it shows 3 digital connectors: PANEL, DVI and HDMI. This shouldn't be possible with this hardware. The latter one doesn't seem to have any outputs. This could be the reason why it doesn't show in xrandr.
The laptop comes with an HDMI connection for sure (that is what I'm using with the HDMI to DVI cable), and, if I understand correctly, the docking bay also gives you a DVI output (perhaps that is just the HDMI output again though). I'll attach to BIOS dump.
Also, if I unplug the VGA connection without first disabling it with xrandr, xrandr starts displaying bogus DVI-D_1 information (even if nothing has ever been plugged into the HDMI connection) until I re-plugin the VGA connection or run "xrandr --output VGA_1 --off" (which still goes through okay even after the VGA connection unplugged):
Could you specify what is printed before you unplugged anything?

- If xrandr is ran before plugging in the VGA connector, the display always shows a miore pattern in the colours. This persists until Xorg is restarted and the display is plugged in before running xrandr.
I don't really understand this: Where do you see this displayed? On the panel or on the VGA?
The VGA (I've now seen this with three different displays) looks like there is some sort of random colour map (i.e., white become orange, black becomes blue, gradients look like rainbows, etc.). The colours on the panel remains fine. I can take a picture when I have my digital camera with me if you would like. I should also note that I've now seen this even when I haven't run xrandr before plugging the VGA in. In fact, I believe the only time I haven't seen it for sure now is when I plug the VGA in before starting Xorg.
