I will emphasize some more: I want to have all of that drm initialization to happen,
EXCEPT do not want to allow it to make display mode change during the boot!
Call me a dinosaur, or whatever, but getting the system to boot to text console
used to be "guaranteed thing", except that now it is not :-( I do not want windows,
I want Linux. When I then see that system did boot correctly, I will MANUALLY
start X.
I might even permit the init-script to start the xdm or other graphical login manager,
but only after the bootup has been completed all the way to userspace!
I tried vga=ask on boot line, but of course it did not have effect on drm.
