Do you use kernel modesetting? If yes you should not be able even to boot normally, not even talking about starting Xorg, if you have the same problem. But if i understand correctly the kms driver check if something is actually attached to the port and if not bails out appropriately ;-) You

Sorry for the constant flood of mesages ;-) But looking at the code in drivers/gpu/drm/i915 it is clear that the culprit is the _detect_hotplug function which is called for 945 and everything higher. Would the temporary patch be to do _detect_ddc instead? -- after first splash boot,
