Top-posting as well as setting up your account name as "Gmail" is
considered a bad practice by some people.

Seems like you're missing the important part about your "VGA compatible
controller", apart from the fact that it is one :P

So what you're saying is:
I have a laptop and I do not see anything on my TV/monitor when I
connect it in via DVI. Although "desktop-setting", seems to acknowledge
the that the TV/monitor is plugged in. Help :)
Nouveau supports outputs connected via DVI, and it should "just work".
With that said, I would recommend you go through the FAQ[1] and
Troubleshooting[2] sections in our wiki, and if things are still looking
bad file a bug[3].
Cheers
