I am connecting the DisplayPort-out connector on the graphics card to the
DisplayPort-in connector on the monitor with normal DisplayPort cable. No
adapters involved.

I should maybe add that, when booting up and before X is running, the Kernel
(with KMS) automatically chooses and successfully enables the highest possible
resolution (2560x1440) on all connected monitors, including the one on
DisplayPort. It's only when X starts that the monitor is switched back to
1280x1024.

Also, the same hardware setup works with all resolutions supported by the
monitor under Microsoft Windows 7.
