T61 and the Intel Graphics Card error - external monitor not detected

T61 with Vista 32 bit, Mobile Intel® GM965 Express Chipset and an Advanced Mini Dock.
I am trying to use the DVI port and an external monitor. The driver does not detect the external monitor.
Uninstalling the Intel driver the Generic profile will work on the external monitor, but is overly fuzzy, how do I get the T61 to recognize my external monitor with the right drivers?
I am currently running the Intel Driver Ver. - 7.14.10.1329, which provides the message under Multiple Display:
Two displays must be connected to the computer before you can use this feature. Please connect another display.
Of course my 22" monitor is connected. That is the frustrating part. I have also uninstalled Presentation Director, just in case, but then re-installed after it seemed that wasn't the problem.
There is a newer driver from Intel but it is not Lenovo approved yet I guess. Though I highly doubt this is the problem. What can I do?
~~
I did post a thread on the thinkpads.com too, but so far haven't had any luck.

Well the new dock came but didn't fix the problem. Now my nice new T61 is packed up in a depot box, waiting for DHL to come pick it up.
dkaufman1 -- I guess we do have different problems. If I set my T61 to display to the DVI port in the bios I get a blank screens on both the DVI connectd monitor and the laptop screen until the OS boots when I have the laptop in the dock. The only way I can see the bios screen to set it back to the ThinkPad LCD setting is to boot it disconnected from the dock.
I really hope that this problem is resolved, as I really like the T61 otherwise. I was even using it with the VGA cable connected to my 22" monitor, but it was pretty hard to take. I'm now back to my old desktop hooked up to the same monitor via DVI and it is quite the relief, even if it isn't as zippy as the T61.

External monitor not detected on Thinkpad W530 intel-virtual-output

I'm having problems with connecting my ThinkPad W530 to external monitors since a few months. I'm using NVIDIA Optimus and bumblebee/optirun since the VGA and Mini DisplayPort connectors are only wired to the NVIDIA card om this laptop. For a long time I have executed:
$ optirun true
$ intel-virtual-output
Then I have started the Screens GUI tool in Gnome to setup the placement of the external screen but now the external screen is not present in the GUI tool and xrandr gives me:
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 32767 x 32767
LVDS1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 193mm
1920x1080 60.00*+ 50.00
1400x1050 59.98
1280x1024 60.02
1280x960 60.00
1024x768 60.00
800x600 60.32 56.25
640x480 59.94
VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
VIRTUAL1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
If I select "Discrete mode" and select startup screen as VGA in the BIOS the BIOS and the Grub screens shows on the external monitor but the screen locks on the screen that shows that the system is booting with the linux-ck kernel. This has never worked for me in Arch Linux so that is no surprise. In Ubuntu everything everything worked fine the last time I tried.
How can I debug this? Why is the external screen not detected any more?

Thanks, I am not sure exactly how to read the logs but I cannot find anything that is obviously wrong
Below is my log with an external screen connected via Mini DisplayPort and after running:
$ optirun true
$ intel-virtual-output
a few times, no more logs seem to be added when I connect/disconnect the monitor or when I run the above two commands more times.

External monitor not detected

I just got a Samsung SyncMaster 2033 SW Plus monitor and tried connecting through the DVI port of my MacBook Pro, but its not getting detected. I'm using the mini display port to DVI adapter to connect. The monitor seems to work perfectly when I connected to the VGA port of my PC, but its not even been detected on the mac. I checked system profiler and it says no external monitor connected. Please help!!

I have a similar problem with my new MBP. I have tried to connect it to my ViewSonic VP920b via the Mini DisplayPort to DVI, but get no video on the external monitor. The system profile shows it as connected, and if I turn mirroring on/off, my MBP monitor changes resolution to mirror (or not) the external, but there's no picture, just black screen.
I've tried
•closing the lid, connecting the external Mini DisplayPort, then waking without opening the lid,
•changing the energy saver preferences to each of the 2 graphics card (Graphics Card: better battery life/better performance),
•changing the external monitor resolution through all the possibilities,
•restart with the external monitor connected
•restart without the external monitor, then connect.

Since the System Profile software can contact the monitor, and since the MBP screen changes in response to connecting or disconnecting the external monitor, I believe it's safe to assume there is no problem with the DVI cable or the MiniPort Display dongle. I just have no video displayed on the external monitor
Any suggestions?

External monitor not detected - Early 2015 MBA

I am the IT admin at my company here. Recently, one of the employees started having severe problems with his Mid-2012 MBA, which would only operate in Safe Mode. Because he needs his computer at all times, my initial "solution" was to give him a new MBA, then try to work on the old one. I gave him a brand new "Early 2015" MBA.
For one day, it worked without issue, but then this morning it stopped detecting the external monitor.
I have done the following:
1. Swapping hardware. I've tried this with a DVI to MDP cable, as well as an HDMI cable using an HDMI to MDP adapter and a DVI cable with a DVI to MDP adapter. I've also tries two different monitors, including a brand new one out of the box.
Note that ALL of these configurations work flawlessly with the 2012 MBA, but the 2015 one doesn't even detect that anything has been plugged in (it does not do the familiar "flash" on the laptop screen).
2. SMC Reset
3. "Detect Displays" from the Displays system preference panel.
4. Plugged another device (a hard drive) into the Thunderbolt/MDP. It works fine.
Both laptops have OS version 10.10.3
Any advice would be appreciated.

Do I need the discrete graphics card?

I'm buying a 15" macbook pro in the next couple of weeks. I do lots of work on Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop. Do I need to get the top model with the discrete graphics card or is it not worth the money?

No, it's certainly not geared for gaming! If you do a lot of Photoshop work with 3D renderings, actions, etc., a discrete GPU can be great - particularly one with 2GB of Video RAM. If I were in the market for a new machine, I would certainly purchase the unit that has the discrete GPU.

Satellite Pro U400 - How do I get the native screen resolution for external monitor?

I have a samsung syncmaster external screen connected to a Satellite Pro U400.
The screen resolution only goes up to 1280 etc however the samsung minimum is 1440 x 920 (ish I forget).
How do I get the samsung to display the whole enlarged screen to save my eyes from the realativively small internal screen?

I??ve got a U400 which was equipped with the Intel graphic card and I??ve got an external LCD which I have connected to the U400 using the DVI-to-HDMI cable.
My U400 unit supports the HDMI and the LCD the DVI port.
I have received also the driver disk with my LCD and I have installed the software.
I have also update the Intel driver and used one from the Intel page.
Now I have the access to many different external resolutions and can choose it.

T61 with Advanced Dock and PCI-e graphics card?

Purchased T61 laptop with NVidia Quadro NVS 140M graphics (Type: 7662-CTO).
Purchased ThinkPad Advanced Dock for use with PCI-e graphics card for multi-monitors. (Type: 2553)
OS = Vista Ultimate
Purchased PCI-e graphics card: NVidia Quadro NVS 440 1x
Purchased four Samsung SyncMaster 740bx monitors
Opened Advanced Dock. Installed Quadro NVS 440 card in PCI-e slot. Card fits perfectly.
Laptop using most recent BIOS v 1.26
Set BIOS config for PCI-e graphics and DVI default monitor.
Connected all four monitors via DVI.
Laptop in dock, turned on. BIOS screen displays correctly on external monitors. Microsoft Corp. screen displays with progress bar. Screen then goes blank and next step should be the Windows login. Login screen never displays, however. Boot-up of laptop halts at this point and never proceeds.
Removed PCI-e card from dock, and placed laptop back in dock. Laptop boots correctly to Windows.
Assumed faulty dock. Called Lenovo for replacement dock. Replacement dock also fails to boot with PCI-e graphics card.
Next assumed bad card. Tried different card. ATI FireMV 2400 1x. Card fits in dock perfectly. Laptop still fails to boot with card in dock.
Called Lenovo. Asked for a list of cards that will work in the dock. Tech support did not know. I asked if anyone at Lenovo has ever seen a T61 laptop work with the Advanced Dock and a PCI-e graphics card. Tech said no. Issue has been escalated to engineering. I still do not have an answer as to which PCI-e cards, if any, will work in the Advanced Dock.
Help please.

I will look into these Matrox cards. Hopefully this will be the solution.

I spent some time surfing through product release letters and data sheets for the grafic cards offered by Lenovo, no where, as far as I could see, does it say that they are compatible with the advanced dock. What is also interesting, they say for PCs they are only tested for 2 screens, but you found the document MIGR-67464 where they show how to configure 4. [confused smiley]
It looks as though you and RBS have found possible solutions for 4 screens, congrats to all
However, I don't want to be the "party pooper" here, but why doesn't your T61 boot in the dock with graphics card? This is still puzzling me, and to be honest I haven't as yet been able to come up with a reason or probable cause as to why

Error: The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum system requirements by Aperture

I have a Mac Pro 3.1 10.5.8 and Aperture 2.1.4. My NVida 8800gt with 512 mb was over heating so I brought and install the ATI radeon hd 5770 to replace it. Now when I try to start Aperture I get this message "Error: The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum system requirements by Aperture". All other software works fine, ie photoshop elements and Safari. When I install my old card aperture will open with no problem, but of course the card will overheat within 10 mins and I will have no video. I have search on google with no luck. Will upgrading to Aperture 3 fix this problem?

5770 requires 10.6.5.
The 8800GT - there is the 350* bake in over 10 minutes - 50% or better chance
you can find 8800GT on http://myworld.ebay.com/macvidcards/

Fan control helps with FBDIMMs which need to be kept under 70C too.

Just got this error message - The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture

Help. I have an iMAC - not even one year old - just got this message - The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture.
I have not made any changes to my machine. Help - I can't get to my images

Try restarting your system.
If that does not help, we will need to know your Aperture version and MacOS X version. And do you use an external monitor? Then disconnect it before rebooting.

There are actually two graphic cards in the system, the one you show in your post and one part of the motherboard.
This is done on laptops to help save battery, when the system does need need high performance graphics, when it is doing text it uses the integrated graphics card, when it needs to do high performance graphics like when running Aperture it switches to the other card.
It is possible something is wrong with your system preventing it from switching. What OS version are you running, is it really 10.6.4?
See MacBook Pro: How to determine which graphics processor is in use to determine which GPU is in use. But if it is not switching you most likely have a hardware problem.

What's the best graphic card for FCP X and a Mac Pro (early) 2008?

I have a Radeon HD 3870 in my Mac Pro, it seems that I cannot use this configuration with Final Cut Pro X. Then what's the best graphic card for FCP X usable in a Mac Pro (early) 2008?
Thx,
Phil

You can get a 5770 radeon ATI MAC card
Avoid the 5770 cards on ebay and Amazon - many are black market or manipulated cards.
Buy it from Apple online store or B&H photo or Macconection
And in my case, I was able to sell my old 2600 XT card on ebay for $65 and put that money toward a 5770 card (Which was about $230 minus the $65)
I installed the 5770 in my early Mac Pro 2 x 2.8 and it works great
