For the record, I'm still working on this from time to time. I ported the patch to kernel land quite easily, but still can't figure out what is the problem with register read failures.
Example from a 3.3.1 kernel booted with i915.modeset=1 drm.debug=0x04: Apr 15 17:52:11 mobilix kernel: [drm:ns2501_init], init ns2501 dvo controller successfully! Apr 15 17:52:11 mobilix kernel: [drm:ns2501_readb], Unable to read register 0x08 from i915 gmbus dpb:38. Apr 15 17:52:11 mobilix kernel: [drm:ns2501_readb], Unable to read register 0x08 from i915 gmbus dpb:38. Apr 15 17:52:11 mobilix kernel: [drm:ns2501_readb], Unable to read register 0x08 from i915 gmbus dpb:38. Apr 15 17:52:11 mobilix kernel: [drm:ns2501_readb], Unable to read register 0x09 from i915 gmbus dpb:38. Apr 15 17:52:11 mobilix kernel: [drm:ns2501_readb], Unable to read register 0x08 from i915 gmbus dpb:38. I would really appreciate someone with drm/intel knowledge helping here. Will post patches later (code is really not that different that my previous post about this). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/362582 Title: [i830] [Needs DVO-LVDS] Installer unable to launch Xorg on Fujitsu Stylistic ST4120PW To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/362582/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
