I have a system that apparently has DVI support built into the onboard
video chipset (ATI ES1000), but there is no physical DVI port on the
machine. Problem is, the system then can't give the VGA port a higher
resolution until I disable DVI-0 with xrandr after it loads the GUI.
Would like a way to switch this port off as early as possible so X will
see the correct HW configuration and I don't have to fiddle with it.
There isn't anything in the BIOS to configure it, just a screen that
tells me what the built-in video is (with the wrong ammt of video memory
while it's at it).
