Subject: [PATCH] gxfb: Don't enable the CRT DACs when we are in flatpanel mode

When the FP strap is enabled, don't turn on the CRT DACs - that will save
about 35 mA of power.

Updated/cleaned up by Andres Salomon.

changelog.
When the FP strap is enabled, don't turn on the CRT DACs - that will save
about 35 mA of power.
