linux - xrandr would not detect my second monitor

I am using linux, have 2 monitors and 1 laptop (3 screens in total) in my setup.


xrandr detect 2 displays (laptop + 1 ext monitor) and I get the same output on both external monitors.


$ xrandr

DP2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
HDMI2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

I already checked posts around internet, but that cant really help since alreayd xrandr doesnt see my second external monitor.


I am expecting to have 2 DP detected, but not, only 1 is detected.


Thanks for the help.
