Xorg startup delay
Hi,

When starting X on my laptop it takes about 20 seconds and during 15 seconds of  
that 20 when X probes for modes the machine isn't responding to anything or  
handling interrupts.  
After starting X a few times my system clock lags about a minute behind and all  
services running can't handle requests during that horrible 15 seconds.  
When starting X remotely I can see the delay when the driver is searching for   
matching VESA modes.   
I have a unichrome Pro chipset (PN800).   
It happens both with the VESA driver and with the VIA driver and the openchrome driver.   
I noticed a faster startup time when using the option "NoInt10" but with that  
option my display became unusable and required a reboot.

So is this some kind of bad bios thing?
