I do not have an oscilloscope to verify, I'm just using a voltmeter and it was
showing signals on after unplugging DP from what I saw. I can see if the
customer does if that would help though?

I am plugging in a dp cord and measuring it on the pins there with a voltmeter
with one end on the plug case and the other on the pin. Would that make it give
false results? I have been unable to measure directly on the displayport
connector on the machine because it is so small, but I will try again if so.

Yeah that works fine, and there are no excess emissions in that case according
to their testing also.

This is what I posted in comments 1-3, but I did it again on 4.4.0 and will
attach those. drm-intel-nightly and drm-intel-next both do not work on this
machine, no displays ever get brought up including the internal one. Would logs
from 4.6.0-rc6 be acceptable? What drm.debug level would be most helpful?

Will do ASAP, I will ask for schematics as well to forward them.
