<pre>Ok, got a bit further,
looks like the state of the SDVOB is not consistent:
I do get valid output from SDVO_CMD_GET_ATTACHED_DISPLAYS when
SDVO_CMD_SET_ACTIVE_OUTPUTS is set to 0 prior to reading
SDVO_CMD_GET_ATTACHED_DISPLAYS.
To get valid output with SDVO_CMD_SET_ACTIVE_OUTPUTS set to anything but 0 some
other conditions need to be met also. I have not yet been able to determine
what these are.
In any case, calling encoder->disable() encoder somewhere in sanitize_encoder()
for DAC-11 will get sdvo_detect() to detect the attached display correctly.</pre>
