I am trying to connect my Macbook Pro to external Samsung VGA monitor via mini display port to VGA adapter. But the monitor is not being detected.
- It is working fine with OS X
- It is not detected in Kubuntu only.
- It works with a coupled mini-display to HDMI and HDMI to VGA.
- If I unplug the VGA cable from the monitor side, a monitor is detected named DP1. (thats true! the VGA cable with a loose end, with no monitors connected, it gets detected. )
I tried upgrading from Kubuntu 14.04 to 14.10. Still the same.
