I set up a Dell U2410 monitor and connected it to my MBP via the mini display

No dice. The monitor claims it's not getting a signal, but when I ask it to find a
signal it says it's getting one through the DVI port. Clicking "detect
displays" in System Prefs/Displays doesn't show me the Dell monitor, though.
Given a choice between a skunk run over by an 18-wheeler on a hot summer day
and Dell customer service, I'll take the skunk.
Can anyone provide some advice?
i agree this is probably a cable or adapter problem; i searched and saw
some people said the Dell will even lose its signal when a cell phone
rings nearby ...
the Dell has a DisplayPort connector; a Mini DisplayPort to (regular)
DisplayPort adapter might be a better bet than the DVI adapter, as it
will not need to do any conversion of the signal
