I too have a Vostro 3500 and have been working with the xorg.conf file deleted to use the default settings
I have followed most of the above steps. (Added in the Option "ConnectedMonitor" "DFP-0" entry having already added in the PCI settings previous to reading this thread) I see the following two lines in the :5.log (--) PCI:*(0:0:2:0) 8086:0046:1028:044e rev 24, Mem @ 0xfa400000/4194304, 0xb0000000/268435456, I/O @ 0x0000f080/8 (--) PCI: (0:1:0:0) 10de:0a75:1028:044e rev 162, Mem @ 0xf9000000/16777216, 0xc0000000/268435456, 0xd0000000/33554432, I/O @ 0x0000e000/128, BIOS @ 0x????????/524288 If I understand the asterix next to the PCI line, the driver is trying to access the wrong PCI slot. Is there a way to disable 0:0:2:0?
