I have a Dell T7500 with a Quadro 4000 card.
I have just attached a new Phillips 328E1CA via display port. The new monitor only has display port and HDMI inputs. The monitor specs are here:

My OS is Ubuntu.
I do not see any of the boot/bios screens. My system has an encrypted hard drive, which requires password upon boot. I do not see that screen either. But if I type in my password and press enter, it takes me into the Ubuntu desktop and I can see things.
How can view the boot/bios screens via displayport?
Edit:
I see Amazon sells DVI to HDMI cables. If I use one of these to connect to the monitor, is it likely to let me see the boot screens?
Edit:
I haven't updated any drivers, but this morning I saw the password screen. I am not sure what is different. Perhaps the order in which I turned the computer/monitor on was different?
