I am a bit in the dark how I should configure this.
Shall I use "UseFBDev" and then what?

As mentioned, I get unusable disorted output when the external 
monitor is plugged in via VGA (over the dvi port) and I am booting my kernel.
But this is unrelated to the xserver.

My understanding of Option "VGAAccess" from the manpage tells me 
that this is not the right option for this.
