+DRM drivers also add options to enable or disable outputs:

+'e' will force the display to be enabled, i.e. it will override the detection
+if a display is connected. 'D' will force the display to be enabled and use
+digital output. This is useful for outputs that have both analog and digital
+signals (e.g. HDMI and DVI-I). For other outputs it behaves like 'e'. If 'd'
+is specified the output is disabled.

+You can additionally specify which output the options matches to.
+To force the VGA output to be enabled and drive a specific mode say:
+ video=VGA-1:1280x1024@60me
+
+Specifying the option multiple times for different ports is possible, e.g.:
+ video=LVDS-1:d video=HDMI-1:D
