In addition you may find you don't get any acceleration, making even
window-dragging a little slow and painful. Or that's what I found using
the 'DisplayPort" connector of my laptop, with an nvidia Quadro FX 880M.
Also, neither that nor the ATI radion X1300 card in my desktop detected
when I rotated the monitor in Linux, or if they did (more likely), they
didn't act on it.
