Hi Ben and Greg,
Please consider
9756fe38d10b drm/i915: no lvds quirk for Zotac ZDBOX SD ID12/ID13
for application to the 3.0.y, 3.2.y, and 3.4.y trees. It was applied
upstream during the 3.6 merge window, so newer kernels don't need it.
Alexander Kurtz writes, using a kernel closely based on 3.2.30[2]:

Thoughts of all kinds welcome, as always.
Thanks,
Jonathan
