I'm only guessing, but I believe the chipset only has two crtcs, both of
which you are using for LVDS and TMDS-1.  Note, the 965-DR does not
contain an LVDS so it has been disabled via a quirk in commit
96246c27cb836bae8ee02c46c68a1f2102efd14b of the git tree on 27 Dec.  I
suggest you either try the git driver or disable the LVDS output in your
xorg.conf, freeing up the crtc for the VGA port.
