I hope you don't take the "reverting" part too personally.
The patch I uploaded that you tried was create before this bug report was
filed, and it was really meant for <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_REOPENED "
title="REOPENED - No signal to monitor with X and openchrome using VX855 chipset graphics"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=91966">Bug 91966</a>.
I have seen the developer for r128 (ATI Technologies Rage 128 based graphics)
change his code to activate VGA even if it was not detected via I2C bug.
<a href="https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-r128/commit/?id=562681414f38c6925da01b3fec0802f532cd9e53">https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-r128/commit/?id=562681414f38c6925da01b3fec0802f532cd9e53</a>
Perhaps, I can change the code to remove manual VGA detection code, and just
assume that a VGA monitor exists even if VGA monitor was not detected via I2C
buses.
How do you think?</pre>
