I've thought about this a bit more and now lean towards thinking that 
putting the PCI IDs in the ACPI video driver is the best way to go. The 
alternative is to only fix it for MSI, which isn't the best option. On 
the other hand, I looked at adding support to the Poulsbo driver and it 
actually seems pretty easy, so to be honest I'd prefer it if that got 
done instead.
