Hello,
I reply to myself, just to tell you that i found a quick hack to my problem :
The idea is to force the driver to start xorg by returning
XF86OutputStatusConnected instead of XF86OutputStatusDisconnected in
the function which probe for a monitor. I've stolen the idea here
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14611
So it works pretty well for me, but i guess it break all the xrandr stuff
Is there a better way to solve this issue ?

Hello everybody,
First of all thanks for your great work ;)
So my problem is i have an sgi1600sw monitor (which is great ... look
here for more details http://www.siliconbunny.com/1600sw-faq/ ).
It is plugged my g35 intel graphic card through to a gfx1600sw pci
adapter card. This monitor use a quite special resolution which is
1600x1024.
The problem is xorg can't start because the screen is not detected ...
egrep \((WW|EE)\) /var/log/Xorg.0.log gives me :
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(WW) The directory /usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillic does not exist.
(WW) intel: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:1) found
(EE) intel(0): Output TMDS-1 enabled but has no modes
(EE) intel(0): No valid modes.
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration
But when i start xorg with another monitor plugged, xorg starts, i
don't see anything because this other monitor can't display 1600x1024,
but if then i plug my SGI monitor, my sgi monitor is working great :)
When my sgi monitor is plugged here is what xrandr gives me :
VGA disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
TMDS-1 disconnected 1600x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y
axis) 473mm x 296mm
1600x1024 (0x4d) 106.9MHz
h: width 1600 start 1620 end 1640 total 1670 skew0 clock 64.0KHz
v: height 1024 start 1027 end 1030 total 1067 clock 60.0Hz
So Is there an xorg option or anything which can force xorg to start
even if it doesn't detect a monitor ?
The Enable Option in the monitor section appears to have no effect ...
