(In reply to comment #1) > Created an attachment (id=49069) [details] > LVDS panels are digital as well! > > Another patch that slipped through the cracks... Hello Chris.I have tried your patch. Sometimes(sometimes SDVO_LVDS can't be lighted and backlight is off except I powoff the machine for a while) the SDVO_LVDS can work well with your patch. after I have done the preferred mode testing with testdisplay command in the console , the backlight is off , SDVO_LVDS can't be lighted ,but testdisplay can detect the SDVO_LVDS info. Attachment is the dmesg info
Right the patch fixes a false negative for detection, but it sounds like we have the usual testdisplay issues.
I guess testdisplay needs backlight support? If you modify the backlight by directly echoing values into /sys/class/backlight/.../brightness do things work?
(In reply to comment #7) > I guess testdisplay needs backlight support? If you modify the backlight by > directly echoing values into /sys/class/backlight/.../brightness do things > work? hello Jesse. There is nothing in /sys/class/backlight when it is just using SDVO_LVDS port

Hi guys, As I get it, the patch did not completely fix the problem. From a distribution side (Chakra), I'd like to ask the following: - In which repository / branch are the patches? - Does the last comment mean this code has the same problem or fixes it? - If it's solved (it obviously isn't, our users still report this in our latest testing release with 3.0.4), will we see a backport to intel-fixes "for linus" or do we have to do that on our own or wait for 3.1? - Are there any traces needed we could ask our users for if it's reported (I don't have a backlight-lid display to test it myself, sorry). For the workaround (setpci -s 00:02.0 f4.b=00) Do we have any chance to "check" system-side if this problem exists for the specified card? We could just add a rc-file as workaround if necessary from the distribution side.
Keith finally sent the patch upstream in commit 2cfab8d74ebfbe06ce2947117945c4f45a5915ec Merge: 5885b9b 3b5c78a Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Date: Fri Dec 16 11:27:56 2011 -0800 Merge branch 'drm-intel-fixes' of git://people.freedesktop.org/~keithp/linux a mere 6 months after being sent the regression fix. This should fix the original problem, anything that remains (such as misconfigured ACPI) should be addressed elsewhere.
