It's not quite working yet; I got started, but the weird DDC stuff in DP
stymied my efforts.

The two HDMI outputs are just the driver being confused by the DP
connections; with the DP detection code in place, you'll not see those,
but (for now), you won't get DP either. I'm hoping to get back to this
shortly.

For now, you'll have to use the VGA connector (a disappointment, I
know).
