I never tested HDMI on my board and I know that most boards need special
PCIe setup to get HDMI working. So unless this is implemented already,
you probably need to code it up yourself.
The issue should be independent of the video driver you're using.

Maybe someone who has a board with working HDMI under the proprietary
BIOS can give you the register dumps you need.
