Hi,
I attached a patch that adds a proposed paragraph to the bottom of the issues
file. I dual-licence it under the GPLv2 and the WTFPLv2
(http://sam.zoy.org/wtfpl/).

+ The driver for Intel Mobile GM965 may wrongly detect a VGA output and set

+ Correct behaviour can be forced by adding the following lines to the
+ <filename>/etc/X11/xorg.conf</filename> configuration file.
+ <screen>
+Section "Monitor"
+ Identifier "VGA"
+ Option "Ignore" "true"
+EndSection
