I overlooked this board is using DVI-I and set it up as VGA only. Thanks 
for the heads up.

So adding the LVDS init also enabled the DVI-I in analog mode. That's an 
interesting information. Can you please provide the X log ? Also, if you 
build the driver with --enable-viaregtool, you'll get 
/usr/sbin/via_regs_dump. Run it with the -dps options with both the 
unmodified git master and the one with your fix and post the output.
