"lspci -nvvvxxx" with external video card and Intel video set to primary

This should be much closer to the original.  No differences in addresses.  The
only differences for Intel video (00:02.0) are prog-if and Expansion ROM at
<unassigned>.

Since BIOS disables Intel video with and AGP card (no 00:02.0 in lspci output),
I think the intention was to disable it with a PCI video card as well.  BIOS
fails to do so either due to a bug or for some technical reason.  In any case,
it's reasonable not to support the Intel video.

It's a very old system.  I intend to give it away for educational purposes. 
Nobody is going to do mutlihead on it.  I just want to get that bug fixed
because it was a pain to install Linux on it, and it would be a pain to
reinstall it.  There were hangs and disk corruption until I blacklisted i915.

The Intel video has VGA output only and there are some minor visual artefacts
(that's material for another bug).
