It seems the driver enabled the nonexistent LVDS panel, and TMDS-1. Can
you send a log without your workarounds in xorg.conf, and with the
ModeDebug option enabled?
It sounds like we should quirk out the LVDS, but I wonder why both VGA
and TMDS-1 are detected as connected if you only have one monitor.
