Intel GM45 Express, DisplayPort, and FreeBSD

[Mike Burns]

What's the status of DisplayPort, especially using an Intel GM45 Express 
(Thinkpad T500)?

I've a new monitor that uses DisplayPort but I don't see it mentioned in 
dmesg or Xorg.0.log, nor does it show in the GNOME Displays prefs.

This is:

  FreeBSD battered.mike-burns.com 7.2-STABLE FreeBSD
  7.2-STABLE #0: Wed Aug  5 14:30:30 EDT 2009
  root at battered.mike-burns.com:/usr/src/sys/amd64/compile/BATTERED
  amd64

With these ports:

  xorg-7.4_2          X.Org complete distribution metaport
  xorg-apps-7.4_1     X.org apps meta-port
  xorg-docs-1.4,1     X.org documentation files
  xorg-drivers-7.4_2  X.org drivers meta-port
  xorg-fonts-100dpi-7.4 X.Org 100dpi bitmap fonts
  xorg-fonts-7.4      X.org fonts meta-port
  xorg-fonts-75dpi-7.4 X.Org 75dpi bitmap fonts
  xorg-fonts-cyrillic-7.4 X.Org Cyrillic bitmap fonts
  xorg-fonts-miscbitmaps-7.4 X.Org miscellaneous bitmap fonts
  xorg-fonts-truetype-7.4 X.Org TrueType fonts
  xorg-fonts-type1-7.4 X.Org Type1 fonts
  xorg-libraries-7.4  X.org libraries meta-port
  xorg-macros-1.2.1   X.Org development aclocal macros
  xorg-server-1.6.1,1 X.Org X server and related programs
  xorg-vfbserver-1.6.1,1 X virtual framebuffer server from X.Org
 
Is this under development? Is there a patch? Is the problem in FreeBSD, 
Xorg, or both? Is there somewhere I should donate money to this cause?
