I'll try it later.

Depends what you mean by "work" :-). Dual-head doesn't work with this
driver version, see my comment on #439322.

It does show the cloned display despite what xrandr says. But it doesn't
respond to xrandr commands:

~$ xrandr --output VGA-0 --right-of LVDS
(nothing happens)

~$ xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1024x768
xrandr: cannot find mode 1024x768

Unplugging and replugging has no effect, afterwards it still shows the
cloned display.

I'll see if I can build from the upstream git repo...

Marcus
