Testing KMS for i915 in 2.6.29-rc8

I just updated my kernel to 2.6.29-rc8 to test the new KMS for the i915
driver, I know it's in test, since then, when I start X it creates 2 output.
My laptop screen LVDS1 and DVI2 which is not connected but appears
connected. Using xrandr to switch it off does not work [ xrandr --output
DVI2 --off ] and it appears my screen changed to something around the 96dpi
instead of maybe 120, or at least it appears to have reduced.

Is it a known issue, any workaround?

Here is what I have installed:
kernel 2.6.29-rc8 with KMS enabled for i915
dri2proto 1.99.3
libdrm 2.4.5
mesa 7.3
xf86-video-intel 2.6.3
xorg-server 1.6.0

Xorg.0.log: http://dpaste.com/14185/
xorg.conf: http://dpaste.com/14186/

I'm aware of the warnings/errors about wacom, I just updated to xorg-server
1.6.0 and didn't recompile them yet. And now I have some cleanup to do,
seems some arguments in the intel section are now invalid.

Thank you for your help.
Jérôme
