#4523: black screen on ATI Mobility Radeon X700 ---------------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: makitka | Owner: euan Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Drivers/Graphics/radeon | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: 7662 Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: All ---------------------------------------+---------------------------- Comment (by x-ist): I compiled the radeon driver with ENABLE_LOGGING enabled in /haiku/headers/private/graphics/common/log_col.h to see more syslog output. Don't know whether I interprete the log correctly, but I see the following oddities: According to {{{ KERN: Radeon - Radeon_GetBIOSDFPInfo: Panel Info from ATOMBIOS: KERN: XRes: 1280, YRes: 800, DotClock: 71250 }}} the correct resolution is read from ATOMBIOS. Following that, display detection is preforrmed and two monitors are detected, although there is just the built-in display panel only. No external monitors attached. {{{ KERN: Radeon - Radeon_DetectDisplays: Searching port 0 KERN: Radeon - Radeon_DetectCRTInt: Found colour CRT connected to CRT-DAC KERN: Radeon - Radeon_DetectDisplays: Detected monitors: 0x2 KERN: Radeon - Radeon_ConnectorInfo: Port 0:- KERN: Monitor: CRT KERN: Conn Type: VGA KERN: DDC Port: None KERN: TMDS Type: None KERN: DAC Type: Primary KERN: Radeon - Radeon_ConnectorInfo: Port 1:- KERN: Monitor: None KERN: Conn Type: LVDS KERN: DDC Port: None KERN: TMDS Type: None KERN: DAC Type: Unknown }}} Port 1 should be the native panel right? Afterwards the display mode is set {{{ KERN: Radeon - SET_DISPLAY_MODE: width=1600, height=900 }}} This resolution is incorrect and probably not supported by the panel (1280x800 would be just right). Then, a second time displays are detected (why?) and the following bad line follows: {{{ KERN: Radeon - Radeon_SetupDefaultMonitorRouting: display_devices=2, whished_num_heads=1, use_laptop_panel=0 }}} So the laptop panel is not going to be used :( -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/4523#comment:18> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
