I installed:
x11-base/xorg-server-1.12.4
x11-drivers/xf86-video-openchrome-0.3.1

  /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ only contains file related to my keyboard setup, so
everything should be autodetected.
However, instead the monitor is put in a sleep mode, and it is not even
possible to switch to console mode using ctrl-alt-F1.
In fact the log says that it does not detect anything connected to the VGA
connector.
Is there a way to force this detection ?

Let me guess you have a DVI connection instead of the VGA one. If that is
the case can you try this patch

I have both**a DVI and a VGA connector (not instead). The monitor is connected to the VGA connector. I'll try the situation anyway and report back.
