Hmm.
The first time I booted this, I just got a black screen on my Haswell desktop when X11 started up. I could ctrl-alt-BS and ctrl-alt-del to reboot the machine, and neither the Xorg.0.log nor the dmesg contained anything interesting.
I was about to try to bisect it, but decided to see how repeatable it was, and it didn't happen again. But it also hasn't ever happened before, so I'm a bit worried.
This is with the DP cable, which has made my other Haswell issues go away.
I'm also a bit bummed that hw acceleration of video doesn't seem to work on Haswell, meaning that full-screen is now a jerky mess. I fear that that is user-space libraries/X.org, but I thought I'd mention it in the hope of getting a "oh, it's working for us, you'll get a fix for it soon".
Linus,
Can you give a little more detail about video not working? Video accel should work fine with the current versions of libva/intel-driver available in Fedora 19 - assuming that's what you're using. I am running that on my MacBook Air 2013 and HSW based Asus quad core i7 desktop. A quick way to exercise the decoders once you install libva/intel-driver is to use VLC enabling GPU acceleration in preferences.

Because my shiny new 65W haswell is really nice and does a "make allmodconfig" in half the time of my old machine, but the GPU side has been something of a step backwards...
