Hi,

I have the same issue on W500 and radeon hd3650 (or firegl v5700) RV635/M86
chip with dell u2412m monitor. Monitor complains that it cannot sync with
signal from DP.
I was able to do a bisect of vanilla kernel, and this problem was introduced
here:

# first bad commit: [ba032a58d1f320039e7850fb6e8651695c1aa571] drm/radeon/kms:
rework spread spectrum handling

So it's probably related to spread spectrum handling on displayport, which was
introduced in that commit. I've done some tinkering with current kernel 3.12.6,
and a simple change (this probably disables spread spectrum on DP) made my DP
monitor work:
