A google of '(EE) GEODE(0): GPIO pins are in serial mode.  Assuming no
DDC' returns a number of items that seem to suggest a bug in XOrg7.6
(which is what 2.3SVN is running).

Not sure of your exact hardware, but one workaround, that had a
confirmed status from other users, was: 
'In this case it is the fit-pc BIOS which is causing the problem. The
"Custom Configuration" section allows the setup of a "COM 2 UART". This
seems to have the effect of setting the cs5535 pins to serial mode. 

I disabled this second COM device and the error disappeared!'

I haven't been able to find whether a fix has gone into XOrg 7.6 yet,
but it may have (the posts suggest that the error is in the XServer, not
the geode driver).
