Hi
   I have gotten the root cause of this issue. And the patch set is already sent to the intel-gfx mailing list.
   If the patch is shipped by the Eric, the issue will disappear.
   Thanks.

Comment 10 Adam Lantos 2009-06-07 09:22:35 UTC
My i915 is still impacted (although if I remember well, several weeks ago it worked, but now it does not). I am running the latest 'stable' bits (2.6.30-rc8, xorg-server-1.6.1, xf86-video-intel-2.7.1).

Dualhead is useless for me in KMS mode.

I have tested with every driver release Rawhide/Fedora 11 provided any none of them ever worked.

> Dualhead is useless for me in KMS mode.
I have to second this. Is there any timeframe? Can we still hope to get this fixed in 2.7.x (which releases will probably make it into Fedora 11 as updates)?

Comment 12 Gordon Jin 2009-06-08 15:17:00 UTC
I'm marking this as blocking Q2 rc2, i.e. I hope this could be fixed in 1 week.

Yakui, we need take quick action on this. Is the patch still in review?

Hi, Gordon
    Sorry that I don't attach the patch set in the bugzilla in time. 
    The patch set is already sent to mailing list twice. But there is no response from Carl Worth.
    Will you please test the attched patch set?
    Thanks.
Comment 18 Mike Kelly 2009-06-16 09:02:39 UTC
I can confirm that those three patches apply properly to xf86-video-intel 2.7.1, and at least appear to have the desired effect (I can now see all of the other modes in xrandr). I'm doing this remotely right now, so I'll give it a more thorough test when I get home, and report back if it does anything weird.

Nope, this doesn't really work. Running:

$ xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1024x768 ; xrandr ; sleep 5 ; xrandr --output LVDS1 --auto

I get display corruption.

Additionally, if I try to use, say, dosbox to change my resolution by going into its full screen mode, when I then try to run xrandr, even after exiting the full screen mode, I am told:

xrandr: output LVDS1 cannot use rotation "normal" reflection "none"

until I do:

$ xrandr --output LVDS1 --reflect normal --rotate normal

Additionally, while it is in the zoomed in mode from dosbox (I can't tell which mode it is in due to the above xrandr failure), It does seem to be at that lower resolution, sort of. Except it doesn't properly adjust the image -- the rendered screen is cropped off at the bottom and right (I can take pictures if necessary).

I'll attach some additional verbose xrandr output.

Comment 21 ykzhao 2009-06-16 18:22:01 UTC
Hi, Mike
    From the log in comment #20 it seems that xrandr will get the same modes as in UMS mode.
    
    And the issue in comment #19 is not related with this bug.
    Will you please open a new bug and attach the output of xorg log in KMS/UMS mode?
    Of course it will be great if you can attach the output of vbios dump and lspci -vxxx.
    Thanks.
