kernel config

After upgrade from 2.6.35 to 2.6.36 I think I have found a regression.
2.6.36 is booting fine until kernel tries to change resolution. Then my monitor just goes blank, but the booting process continues. Using ssh I'm able to connect to my computer and there are following messages in my dmesg:
[    4.650041] No connectors reported connected with modes
[    4.650046] [drm] Cannot find any crtc or sizes - going 1024x768

My configuration:
onboard graphic card: ATI Technologies Inc RS482 [Radeon Xpress 200] with both VGA and DVI ports
monitor: Samsung SyncMaster 204B

Please note that this only happens when my monitor is connected with DVI.
After switching to standard VGA cable everything works just fine.

    drm/radeon/kms: rework combios i2c handling
    
    Handle asic specific table to hw mappings in
    combios_setup_i2c_bus() directly.  This allows us
    to remove most of the combios quirks and clean up
    the i2c bus setup.
