The video card is detected correctly. My hardware is a Dell Inspiron 8000 with a
XGA 15 inch screen and ATI 32 meg M4 video card.

Are you sure DDC is supposed to work? Not all monitors have DDC, and things like
KVMs and some video cards are in the way.

Anyway, assigning to kudzu, as that is what does the actual ddc probe.
