X1 + LED Cinema Displays?

Hi,

Is the X1 personally known to anyone to be compatible with Apple LED Cinema Display (Mini DP, 24", non-thunderbolt)? The X301 using Circuit Assembly DisplayPort -> Mini DisplayPort adapter cable failed to work (recognized properly but went flickering a few seconds later). This is supposed to be related to some proprietary voltage issues of Apple LCD, due to which adapters and sometimes even extension cables are no good with it.

X1 obviously requires no adapter for Apple LCD, yet would be very grateful if someone let know that has them both working with one another or not.

Please feel free to report compatibility of other Thinkpads with Apple monitors in this topic, as resources on this matter are limited & hard to find.
