Yeah, TV detect is still a little wonky.  We're probably going to set
F11 so that TV outputs are something you have to explicitly enable.

Sure.  The usual Virtual size caveats apply.  But G40 and 965 chips have
a sensible coordinate limit (4096 pixels) so you won't get stuck at 2k
like 915 or 945.

HDMI has worked for quite a while.  F10 at least, although there's been
some bug fixes since.

DisplayPort is another thing entirely (different connector, different
signalling, etc), and does not work yet.
