Ah, found it:

$ ls /sys/class/drm/card0
card0-DVI-D-1        card0-LVDS-1  dev     power      uevent
card0-HDMI Type A-1  card0-VGA-1   device  subsystem

$ cat /sys/class/drm/card0/card0-LVDS-1/status 
connected

$ cat /sys/class/drm/card0/card0-LVDS-1/enabled 
enabled

$ cat /sys/class/drm/card0/card0-LVDS-1/modes 
1680x1050
