dmesg, xorg log and amdgpu vbios

Hello. This is my first time trying to report a bug, I hope I'm in the right
place, I tried the amd-gfx list and they sent me here :)

I have a PC with MSI A68HM-E33 V2 motherboard, and AMD A8-7680 CPU with Radeon
R7.

I'm running Debian 9 Stretch, Kernel~4.19.0-0.bpo.6-amd64, using amdgpu driver,
and I get video only on the HDMI output.

xrandr only lists the HDMI output as connected, and a DVI output disconnected.
The motherboard doesn't have DVI connector, only VGA and HDMI.

I tried forcing video output on the DVI interface, but I didn't get any video
on VGA port, even though the desktop was arranged to spread across both
screens.

I tried several options for the kernel module, such as "exp_hw_support" and
"cik_support" didn't fully knowing what they did, to no avail.

Of course I have two monitors plugged in to both connectors, and I ruled out
hardware problems (such as burned connector) because I changed the HDD and
installed windows, with the official AMD windows drivers I get video working
fine on both monitors, so monitors, cables and ports are working.

The motherboard has the latest BIOS available. 

I'm attaching dmesg, Xorg log and vbios.rom as was suggested by amd-gfx

Also I selected "major" as severity because if you don't have an HDMI monitor,
you just can't use linux in this motherboard with amdgpu driver.

Thanks!
