[Intel-gfx] can't use my TV after switching to 2.10.0 and kms on archlinux

Hi!

I have Fujitsu SIemens Scaleo E with an i915 card with additional SDVO
card. On board is VGA and on SDVO card is a DVI, a SVIDEO and an
internal SCART output.

Before upgrading I didn't use kms, just had a patched intel driver to
default to PAL instead of NTSC. Now with kms I have a blanked console
after module loaded and I have no X screen either.

I can logon over ssh and I can even do use x11vnc to the X server that
is appearantly running. The tv thinks there is something, but displays
just a blank screen.

I started kernel with drm.debug=1 and got those messages:
