It would be interesting to know if there's a VBT on the machine at all anywhere. It might be hiding in an ACPI reserved or non-volatile region; /proc/iomem will show you where those are, and you can scrape them out of /dev/mem with clever use of dd(1). Or, Apple might have decided to do their own thing, in which case it's all much harder. The dual-channel LVDS thing you mention in the next message is a fair point. We should be able to just look at the native panel mode timings and _know_ whether it needs to be dual-channel. I think the break frequency is 112MHz, I'm sure the docs have the real number. - ajax
