Dell E6510 Video issues

[Bengt Ahlgren]

Just for the record: Ironlake is quite a lot older.  I have the same in
my ThinkPad X201, which has been working pretty well for some time now,
also with HDMI from a dock.  I however run 9.3-STABLE (with the new
console).

To the OP: there is a newer xorg-server in the latest ports tree that
you may want to try:

xorg-server-1.14.7_1,1
