I'm afraid he's not the only vaio owner with problems. I was quite happy with
2.6.37 rc 2 to 4 because finally the display port was detected again after
skipping 2.6.36 because of the issue. 

Only just found this thread with an explaination why I was unable to work 2.6.36.

Is there any chance eDP will work again in the final release without breaking
other laptops:
