Ah, looking at that you ALSO have an Intel card, which *probably* means
you have an NVIDIA Optimus configuration. In that, the Intel card drives
the display but can either use its own, low-power 3D engine, or a
higher-power one provided by the NVIDIA device. As I understand it, in
this configuration, the NVIDIA card can't drive the display by itself
(in contrast to a dual-card configuration in a desktop, where both cards
would have monitor ports).
In order to get Optimus working with linux, you need to install
Bumblebee. This page[1] should give you the information you require
there.
