Bug Description

I found that DisplayPort should be found if a screen is connected at boot, but it does not work for me. (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/NouveauDisplayPort#DisplayPort_support_for_Nouveau)

Xrandr give me this :

LVDS-1 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 345mm x 194mm
   1920x1080 59.9*+ 60.0
   1680x1050 60.0
   1400x1050 60.0
   1280x1024 59.9
   1280x960 59.9
   1152x864 60.0
   1024x768 59.9
   800x600 59.9
   640x480 59.4
   720x400 59.6
   640x400 60.0
   640x350 59.8
VGA-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

The Nvidia driver detect the DisplayPort.

I don't know if this is linked, but BIOS does not appear on the screen.
