Description: Ubuntu 19.10
Release: 19.10
What I expected to happen: The Mini DisplayPort connection should appear.
What happened: There appears to be no Mini DisplayPort connection.
On Ubuntu 19.04 (Linux 5.0.0-x) Mini DisplayPort worked, when upgrading to Ubuntu 19.10 (Linux 5.3.0-x) it stopped working after a reboot.
The computer is a Lenovo T530 with Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3210M integrated graphics.
No DP connection shows up in /sys/class/drm
$ ls /sys/class/drm/
card0 card0-LVDS-1 card0-VGA-1 renderD128 version
Unsurprisingly no DP connection shows up when running xrandr either.
$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1600 x 900, maximum 32767 x 32767
LVDS1 connected primary 1600x900+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 340mm x 190mm
...
VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
