So basically my mid-2012 unibody mbp 13" has some issues with the displayport. It works and I can use a monitor with it, but when it goes to sleep mode and then comes back on, the monitor doesn't show anything as if it's still in sleep mode. The monitor is being detected and does show under displays, it's just black and then it auto switches between sources as if the MBP was still in sleep mode. Any chance there's a fix for this? \

This is my first time using a monitor with it, before I would use my pc with the monitor and then just use synergy to use both, but lately have been trying out using MBP as main source for my desk for fun (and also not strain my eyes with the display LOL). Would like to get this working without the sleep issue if possible!

Maybe you can get something useful out of this long thread regarding 2012 Mac Mini:
