Description Ivan Tarasov 2009-07-14 18:51:20 UTC
I'm trying to run the simple test (test/test1) with Gefen USB->DVI connector (ID 17e9:01e9), however it does something similar to resetting the USB connection after the video mode is set.

Output from test1 (with -DDEBUG):

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was able to trace it down to the first call to mode_set_from_edid, during this call usb_bulk_writes succeed, however after that they fail (after timeout) with the error message shown above. If I do dlo_mode_set_default twice in a row in dlo_claim_device, I get the same error as above on the second call.

During the first call, dlo_usb_write actually succeeds after edid_to_vreg_commands. Any dlo_usb_write with non-empty buffer after that fails.

I'm not sure if that's true, however it's possible that this specific USB->DVI connector doesn't support such a high res mode (it seems that the max supported mode is 1600x1200). I tried to set a lower-res mode instead of EDID default in dlo_claim_device (e.g. 800x600x24@60), however it still failed after this mode was "set".


I'm running Debian GNU/Linux (2.6.30.1), libusb-0.1.4.
