I've managed to solve my own bug (#10545) by applying the following
patch to the xserver.
Please apply.
<Conspiracy mode on>
This monitor is "Vista Certified". I wonder if this is a pure coincidence...
<Conspiracy mode off>
With kind regards

Option "Enable" "True" will force the server to enable an output at startup
time, even if the output is not connected. This also causes the default
modes to be added for this output, allowing even sync ranges to be used to
pick out standard modes.
(cherry picked from commit a3d73ba2cb)
By default, use the screen monitor section for output 0, however, a driver
can change which output gets the screen monitor by calling
xf86OutputUseScreenMonitor.
(cherry picked from commit f4a8e54caf)
The entity (device) has a locking SAREA and a master file descriptor
that optionally isn't closed between server generation.
The locking SAREA contains the device hardware lock.
Each DRI screen creates an new SAREA containing the drawable lock,
drawable-and private info, the drawable SAREA.
The first screen optionally shares its drawable SAREA with the
device SAREA.
Default is to close the master descriptor between server generations,
and to share the drawable SAREA of the first screen with the device locking
SAREA. Thus we should (hopefully) have full backwards compatibility.
Mesa changes to support single-device multiple screens are pending.
This Acer monitor reports support for 75hz refresh via EDID, and yet when
that rate is delivered, the monitor does not sync and reports out of range.
Use the existing 60hz quirk for this monitor.
(cherry picked from commit 1328a288e9)
By the time CloseScreen gets called, we can't call ProcessInputEvents, as
the event queue will get unhappy. So just unregister our hooks instantly,
and hope that they don't get called.
xf86SetSingleMode tries to resize all crtcs to match the selected mode. When
a CRTC has no matching mode, it now disables the CRTC (instead of crashing).
Also, poke the RandR extension when xf86SetSingleMode is done so that
appropriate events can be delivered, and so that future RandR queries return
correct information.
(cherry picked from commit dc6c4f6989)
/sys/devices reflects the bus topology, and we don't care that much.
Easier (and more reliable) to just look in /sys/bus/pci/devices, which
is a flat view.
When we see an evdev or vmmouse section, assume that it's a mouse, and
don't add a default mouse device. This will break users who have an
evdev keyboard section but no mouse, and want the mouse to get added
by default.
Now, fbcmap_mi.c contains the fb functions which just wrap mi functions.
Previously, these were in fbcmap.c and compiled when XFree86Server was defined.
Now, clients of fbcmap should either use fbcmap.c or fbcmap_mi.c and not worry
about setting the XFree86Server symbol.
Additionally, protect libcw setup behind checks for Render, to avoid
segfaulting if Render isn't available (xnest).
The previous setup was an ABI-preserving dance, which is better nuked now.
Now, anything that needs libcw must explicitly initialize it, and
miDisableCompositeWrapper (previously only called by EXA and presumably binary
drivers) is gone.
Yes, two changes in one commit. Sorry 'bout that.
The first change ensures that when pending property values have been
changed, a mode set to the current mode will actually do something, rather
than being identified as a no-op. In addition, the driver no longer needs to
manage the migration of pending to current values, that is handled both
within the xf86 mode setting code (to deal with non-RandR changes) as well
as within the RandR extension itself.
The second change eliminates the two-call Create/AttachScreen stuff that was
done in a failed attempt to create RandR resources before the screen
structures were allocated. Merging these back into the Create function is
cleaner.

I think master and server-1.3-branch are more in sync now.
desiredX and desiredY were not recorded during xf86InitialConfiguration.
desiredX, desiredY and desiredRotation were not recorded during
xf86SetSingleMode.
(cherry picked from commit 36e5227215)
Pending Properties take effect when the driver says they do, so provide an
API to tell DIX when a property effect is made. Also, allow driver
to reject property values in RRChangeOutputProperty.
(cherry picked from commit 8eb288fbd6)
The rotation state is stored in the xf86_config structure which is not
re-initialized at server reset time. Clean it up at CloseScreen time.
(cherry picked from commit f8db7665dc)
The former <X11/extensions/XKBsrv.h> has been pulled into the server now as
include/xkbsrv.h, and the world updated to look for it in the new place,
since it made no sense to define server API in an extension header. Any
further work along this line will need to do similar things with XKBgeom.h
and friends.
The DDC code sets the I2C timeouts to VESA standards, except that it had an
extra setting of the ByteTimeout value which was wrong (off by a factor of
50). Removing this should help DDC work on many more monitors. Note that the
Intel driver duplicated these settings, along with the error. Yay for cult
and paste coding.
The xf86 mode setting code was mis-using this field to try and store a
pointer to a DisplayModeRec, however, each output has its own copy of every
DisplayModeRec leaving the one in in the RRModeRec devPrivate field pointing
at a random DisplayModeRec.
Instead of attempting to rectify this, eliminating the devPrivate entirely
turned out to be very easy; the DDX code now accepts an arbitrary RRModeRec
structure and set that to the hardware, converting it on the fly to a
DisplayModeRec as needed.
(cherry picked from commit 3506b9376c)
The RandR protocol spec has several requests in support of user-defined
modes, but the implementation was stubbed out inside the X server. Fill out
the DIX portion and start on the xf86 DDX portion. It might be necessary to
add more code to the DDX to insert the user-defined modes into the output
mode list.

Updated code to work in master with recent security API changes.
Rotation block handler was re-registering the rotation damage structure,
creating an infinite loop in the damage code. Track registration of the
damage structure to avoid this.
(cherry picked from commit b14f003b0e)
xf86_reload_cursors is supposed to be called from the crtc mode setting
commit hook; as that happens during server initialization, check for this
case.
