DRI/radeon related part of dmesg

I just bought an AMD system and when I tried and connected my dual screen. When The uEFI initializes them both display the same thing, but once radeon loads I get only the DVI-connected one displaying anything.
I have some DisplayPort related errors in my kernel log so maybe this is an initialization problem of KMS.

xrandr says both monitors are up and at the same resolution (1920x1080@60) but obviously it doesn't talk about the same screen as me.

The fun fact was that the exact same setup worked with an nvidia card and nouveau.
Second Fun fact is that on windows7 with the latest version of Catalyst the VGA monitor gets an unsupported mode when trying to set it into 1920x1080@60Hz the only way to get an image is reducing resolution to 1680x1050 (or less).

Proper output... the previous one was with a nvidia card plugged and only the DVI monitor connected to the Radeon not the VGA one (this is why there is no error in the log, the error is there only when a VGA monitor is connected during boot).
