<pre>Okay it seems that the bug is in the control/initialisation of the DisplayPort.
If I leave the DisplayPort connector disconnected, then I can start X using the
nouveau driver on the in-built LVDS display. If I then connect the DisplayPort
connector, it shows up in xrandr but trying to enable it results in the same
"hang" as trying to boot with the DisplayPort cable connected.
I can try enabling various bits of debugging within the nouveau driver and
report back the results if anyone can point me in the right direction?</pre>
