Description edbarx 2016-09-20 09:51:00 UTC
Created attachment 126646 [details]
dmesg output with kernel parameter "drm.debug=14".

During boot kernel warns with:
<<
Sep 18 06:58:03 edbarx-pc3 kernel: [    7.471266] [drm] Wrong
MCH_SSKPD value: 0x16040307
Sep 18 06:58:03 edbarx-pc3 kernel: [    7.471269] [drm] This can cause
pipe underruns and display issues.
Sep 18 06:58:03 edbarx-pc3 kernel: [    7.471270] [drm] Please upgrade
your BIOS to fix this.
>>

On kernel boot, text is unreadable with pixel lines shifted to left by a constant number of pixels. This persists until user console settings take over as I have to use bigger than normal fonts.

While scrolling in Firefox a horizontal narrow line is distorted.
