OK, I'll ask a colleague to give this a try. The problem is to set up a machine that both runs the proprietary driver and a recent enough Debian to have libpciaccess available.

Yes, but having the exact same timings on the FB console and X11 results a smoother switch between the two modes.

Sorry for the apperantly dumb question, but how do tell X to use the CVT mode?

Hm. I tried to reproduce the problem I faced on friday, but it disappeared. Now I get the "reduced blanking" message in the drm_fb_helper_connector_parse_command_line debug output. Strange.
Now I tried to give the modeline the drm debug output to xorg.conf, but it doesn't pick it up. I must be doing something stupidly wrong again:
