Guys I really still hate this :-)

Other OSes must deal with this sort of thing and I can't say they
don't do it like this but I can't say for certain this feels like the
right answer.

My thinking is that we could probably just trust the hot plug detect
if its reported on HDMI and DVI-D connectors, we still need to poll
DVI-D as the VGA->DVI convertors don't often assert hpd.

Am I missing something that this wouldn't fix?

otherwise I''ll push these after another few reads.

Dave.
