Some recent integrated graphics chipset, notably Intel's "Pineview", also
provide on-chip LVDS support. As an extra service, the LVDS interface supplies
EDID data - irrespective of whether an LVDS panel is connected or not. The
drm_mode_getresources() function, therefore, causes Xorg to always include
the LVDS panel into the display and initialize a separate screen for it. e.g.
(II) intel(0): Output LVDS1 connected
(II) intel(0): Output VGA1 connected
(II) intel(0): Using spanning desktop for initial modes
(II) intel(0): Output LVDS1 using initial mode 1024x768 +0+0
(II) intel(0): Output VGA1 using initial mode 1280x1024 +1024+0
which is not what you want, if the only connected screen is a VGA monitor.
One would assume that the BIOS settings of such systems would allow to
separately enable or disable LVDS support; unfortunately, systems have been
found in the wild that do not provide this feature.
So video=LVDS-1:d doesn't work for you?
Oops, yes, you are totally right. By some reason, I overlooked this
option. I tried two systems that need forced disabling and enabling with
video=LVDS-1:d video=VGA-1:e
which worked perfectly well.
So please skip this patch, sorry for the noise.
Thanks,
