"CRT + TV" option was chosen in BIOS setup

OpenChrome Version 0.4.0 (March 31st, 2016)
-------------------------------------------

OpenChrome Version 0.4.0 is a major break from the past versions where
configuring the display resources were done manually. Now the displays
are detected mostly automatically, although a few manual options still
remain. These will be retired in the near future. Besides that, two
alternative mode setting options were discontinued (VBE mode setting
and "legacy" mode setting), in order to simplify the code. A regression
affecting those with a DVI to VGA adapter, which appeared in OpenChrome
Version 0.3.x, is now fixed. More importantly, devices that were not
registered with a known device table (a large table that is located
internally inside the code) used to crash during boot time, but since
this table was removed completely, this bug does not appear anymore.

- Removal of VBE (VESA BIOS Extension) mode setting
(removal of VBEModes and VbeSaveRestore options)
- Removal of "legacy" mode setting
(removal of ModeSwitchMethod option)
- Removal of ActiveDevice option
- Removal of ForcePanel option
- Removal of PanelSize option
- Removal of a known device table internally
- Mostly automatic display detection
- Fix for a regression affecting those with DVI to VGA adapter
- Fix for a boot time crash for devices that were not on the known
device table
- Fix for a possible OLPC XO-1.5 detection issue (untested)
- Fix for various small compilation warnings / errors
OpenChrome DDX Version 0.6 fixes the following bugs.

- Fix for the disruption of the VT (Virtual Terminal) screen bug
introduced in Version 0.5
- Fix for HP 2133 Mini-Note's PCIe WLAN getting turned off
inadvertently bug introduced in Version 0.5
