This one seems to be for the userspace driver. There is a similar patch
for KMS, submitted by Keith Packard with the subject
"drm/i915: sdvo: check GPIOA for SDVO DDC (vga DDC) when GPIOE fails",
which works for me and also gives me a framebuffer console with the
native LCD resolution.

I just tested the patch from Keith Packard again with 2.6.31-rc5. The
driver now seems to be stable enough to work on my Mac mini so I can
confirm that this patch works for me.

I doesn't apply cleanly to 2.6.31-rc5, so I attached a rebased patch.

Regards,
Tino
