Adam-

I am experiencing the same issue with a Thinkpad T61 while docked.  My
problem started when I switched from Fedora 13 to Fedora 14.  The
problem also occurs when I boot from a Fedora 15 Live CD.

I have bee able to work around the problem by leaving my T61 lid open
while in the docking station.  I am able to get the VGA port to display
only if the lid is open.  Also the problem appears to be worse when
using the Nvidia display drivers vs. Nouveau drivers.

Strange issue indeed.

Charlie
