Hi,
currently DDCReg in  radeonfb is hardcoded to CRT  port (secondary port,
primary DAC).

I've working code to detect connector type. On my board it finds the CRT
port  and  DVI  port. The  latter is  ignored  because  dviDisp_type  is
MT_NONE. If crtDisp_type is MT_NONE then it will use the DVI port.

BTW, do you do this the same way as or differently than the XFree86
driver?

What should I  do if both port  are in use? Read EDID  from primary port
and ignore secondary?

What about a module/kernel option ? In the meantime, I'm working on
dual head support, though I'm not sure I'll have that finished soon.

How do you plan to handle this, create a second framebuffer device?
