Connectors that have to be forced to ON are turned to on before any selection happens. Can you provide the file located in /home/arcade/shared/logs/groovy.log ? (or could be /home/arcade/shared/log/groovy.log)
It should even say "Turning <connetor> to ON as required"

I'm not sure where to find this log file, this is all while booting off usb so nothing has been installed to any drives. I cannot find any log files on the usb key either.
I tried again, this time at boot with my LCD plugged into motherboard vga, I selected 15kHz, then I promptly unplugged the monitor.
I figured if it does not detect a monitor on that port it would force the analog DVI-I on my video card.
So again, it went through all outputs, when it forces analog on DVI-I I get a screen on my arcade monitor. I select OK, but after it finishes with video port scan the screen stays black.
I hit enter a couple times hoping something would happen but nothing does.
Something interesting I did find though, when I hit the power button for the computer to power down or reboot so I can try again, I get the groovyarade splash screen popup on my arcade monitor.

Anything else I can try?
I've given it a go another dozen times or so and it's always the same thing.
Display works for me to select ok when analog on dvi-i is forced and works when powering computer down.
Otherwise screen is always black.

@robbbby,
You won't get this working with your motherboard gpu enabled, it sounds like X is sending the output to the wrong gpu. Try disabling it or at least not allowing the lcd to be detected on boot (i.e. unplug it, then turn the computer on).
Substring:
There is no X at this moment.
Robbbby, do you have network on your pc cab ?

Good idea. I will try disabling onboard gpu and only going off the Radeon just to see if that changes anything.

The network port is enabled in the motherboard bios but it is not hooked up to my network.
If need be I can easily connect it.
