Could it be that the method you're using for disp_get is just wrong?  We only
evaluate that on load, after that, we keep track of the value in the softc
s_disp.

Is your asl online somewhere?  What does the \\_SB.PCI0.P0P1.VGA.GETD method
return?  Maybe that value needs to be massaged in some way...
