External monitor is blank with nouveau driver

[Andriy Bakay]

Hi Robert,

I have the following hardware/software spec:

ThinkPad T61
FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE-p5 amd64
NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M
X driver nouveau
External monitor NEC MultiSync 90GX2

I am connecting external monitor through VGA interface. I was able to
detect it using command 'xrandr -q' and even turn it on:

$ xrandr --output VGA-0 --auto --below LVDS-0

the geometry of my desktop changed, but monitor remain blank.

Please, advise.

Thanks,
Andriy
