retitle 586448 External DVI fails with nouveau thanks
My apologies for this late ammendment to my previous response.I just remembered that I used a Windows image to boot this system (back when the port replicator / motherboard connector was still functioning), and that did successfully use the DVI connector for output to the monitor. So, I guess the DVI issue was not a hardware failure problem, per se.
I'm sorry that the system condition has changed in such a manner now that I may not be able to be helpful in tracking down the bug -- assuming that there is one.
