Is the lvds console display shifted if you don't connect any external monitor ?
So far I only got the LVDS to display anything by connecting the DP monitor, so I don't really know. I didn't try much there... I'll try some other magic incantations/plug sequences tomorrow, maybe there's a sequence to get LVDS-only with it actually showing something.
Starting X while the LVDS is off works fine, reenabling it.
Also, the "LVDS off" state after loading the module has the backlight off too, maybe it's a bug in the brightness control and there is content but I just don't see it...
