Linux LVDS Timing

We GFX card:  Intel 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)(8086:0116)

We environment:
kernel 3.0.7
xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.15.0
xorg-x11-server-1.10.0
libdrm-2.4.25

During entering the Linux OS, at a certain time, the signal of LVDS should be turned off first, then turn off LCD VDD.(Time interval should be 0-50ms)
But in testing we find the result is opposite. The signal of LVDS will be turned off after the LCD VDD. Time interval is 66ms. 
We don't if it's due to the graphic driver. 

There's a test result list in attachment.

This sounds like eDP power sequencing fun to me - I'm not aware of a VDD line on plain LVDS panels.

This is Larry from Sony. 
Currently we met this issue during test on our Linux project, test result with using driver "VESA" is pass, so it looks like this issue may caused by driver for Linux. anyone can support on this? thank you very much.

edp power sequencing fix

Can you please try this patch?
Comment 4 Jesse Barnes 2012-04-18 12:17:20 UTC
Larry or Peng, can you try Daniel's drm-intel-next-queued branch if his patch doesn't help?  The 3.0.7 kernel is really old, and lots of panel fixes have gone in since then.  Assuming a newer kernel works, you can bisect to the patch(es) that help and backport them to your environment.
