Hello,

xrandr lists the connector outputs like this: HDMI1, HDMI2, DP1, DP2, etc.
On our current mainboard with DVI and DisplayPort, the kernel driver assigns 
the number 2 to a pure DVI connection, so xrandr prints "HDMI2" for that 
connection. HDMI1 will be used, when I use a DP-to-DVI adapter on the 
DisplayPort while the other DVI port is used. The new board model (which uses 
the Intel i915 driver) has its DVI and DisplayPort connector switched and the 
DVI connection is now numbered with a "1". Using the adapter on the DP again, I 
get HDMI2.

I found out, that these numbers are generated by calling "ida_simple_get()" in 
the function "drm_connector_init()" in drivers/gpu/drm/drm_crtc.c and saving 
its return value in the connectors attribute "connector_type_id".

It would be preferable, to keep the current numbering scheme. Can I modify some 
code in order to achieve this? Or is there a way to influence the order in 
which the connectors are initialized?

Best regards,
Andreas
