I think that part of the driver knows there is something connected to the
DVI port (especially since it used to work a while back) but because
the EDID info isn't what is expected this is ignored. And what I think
ends up happening is that with the driver not thinking any monitor is
attached that it defaults to using the VGA port.
I tried looking at the driver source to figure out where it might be doing
this based on th EDID information but couldn't grok that. So I ended mucking
with what I could grok and forced the monitor type in a place where it
was set to MT_NONE.
