#8457: Blank screen after boot on Radeon Mobility 4670 HD ------------------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: kvark | Owner: kallisti5 Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Drivers/Graphics/radeon_hd | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: blank radeon Blocked By: | Blocking: 7662 Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: x86 ------------------------------------------+---------------------------- Comment (by kallisti5): Replying to [comment:29 kvark]: > LCDPANEL_CAP_READ_EDID seems like it would be the answer, though the AtomBIOS dump shows ucLCDPanel_SpecialHandlingCap to be 0 :( Already looked at this.. the linux drm driver doesn't use that table. Replying to [comment:30 kvark]: > I'm going to work on a patch that adds the following check box to the fail-safe video modes list in the boot menu: > "Prefer additional VESA mode, if provided", checked by default. That seems like a fairly hacky hack. Wouldn't it be better to just boot from failsafe (vesa)? I'd focus on the drm driver to try and figure out what it is doing different. I've reviewed the code and don't see anything different. Let me ping AMD and see what they think. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/8457#comment:31> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
