           Summary: Blank laptop screen if DVI display plugged in on Xorg
                    startup after "Fix connector table mapping for
                    lvtma/kaleidoscope/uniphy" commit (d744dc01...)
           Product: xorg
           Version: 7.4
          Platform: x86-64 (AMD64)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/Radeon
        AssignedTo: xorg-driver-ati at lists.x.org
        ReportedBy: twhitehead at gmail.com
         QAContact: xorg-team at lists.x.org


I noticed my laptop's panel goes black/blank on Xorg startup if an external DVI
display is plugged into the HDMI connect on the side of the laptop (via a HDMI
to DVI cable) during Xorg startup.  Plugging it in after startup does not cause
this problem.

Using git bisect shows the first commit this started happening at was "Fix
connector table mapping for lvtma/kaleidoscope/uniphy"
(d744dc013cf5ca3141c0fdf55e36d713fe9f53ba).  I'll attach a log file from Xorg
starting up with the with the the external DVI display plugged in for this
commit and the previous working one.  The difference between them is

I'll also attach logs for both driver versions starting up without the DVI
