After some googling the following thread on the kernel mailing list seems the same problem:

    I've upgraded from 2.6.32 and I get a blank screen when the system is
    starting KMS. My motherboard is an Intel DG43NB with onboard video. I
    traced back to the patch that stopped working on my system and it is
    patch-2.6.32-git7. patch-2.6.32-git6 works fine.

I've bisected the kernel and have found that my problem is due to this
commit:

commit fc816655236cd9da162356e96e74c7cfb0834d92

drm/i915: Don't set up HDMI ports that aren't in the BIOS device table.
