There was code added to disable BIOS output toggling since the X
server doesn't yet support acpi events so there's no way to validate
modes for a new output device and the bios can potentially do things
behind the driver's back.  I added an option to xorg cvs to re-enable
the old behavior, BIOSHotkeys.
