that's fine, just don't use a DisplayPort->anything cable/adapter/whatever. DisplayPort->HDMI/DVI actually outputs a HDMI/DVI signal over the DisplayPort interface, which doesn't get recognized as the primary output (not sure if it's OE-specific or an issue with Intel's Linux drivers). Straight DisplayPort is fine, as is HDMI/DVI/VGA out of the HDMI port.
