my kernel config 

My Thinkpad R61 has an bios option to set the primary display to 'vga'.

old behaviour (non-kms): using this, the internal display (lvds) stays black,
if vga(external) is connected and i see everything on the attached vga. (bios,
grub, kernel)
sometimes later X starts and activates the lvds and i have one big desktop.
all's well. 

but nowadays with kernel-mode-setting:

booting with kms enabled (config and dmesg attached) i get thing's displayed on
my vga until the kernel sets the video modes. on my vga display all is well,
but the lvds starts ''growing white''. 

starting X dosn't fix things, but the lvds is ''resetted'' and restarts to grow
white. sometimes i see some residue of the (vga)framebuffer content at first
until all is white.


i have one warning in my dmesg (see attached), but only after i start X. the
display-distortion is independent of X.


note: setting the primary boot-device in the bios to 'internal display'
everything works just fine, everything is displayed on the lvds, until the
kernel starts setting the modes. from then on, i have nice cloned framebuffer
console. X works also as it should. 


i have also attached the Xorg.0.log, maybe you can see something in there.
