Priority: medium Bug ID: 62246 Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Summary: LVDS screen mode switching fails Severity: major Classification: Unclassified OS: Linux (All) Reporter: felix-freedesktop@fefe.de Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64) Status: NEW Version: XOrg CVS Component: DRM/Radeon Product: DRI
I have a HP Envy 14 laptop, which has switchable graphics between:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Madison [Radeon HD 5000M Series] (rev ff)
This used to work (I'm not using it very often, so I don't know which kernel version broke it), and I think it caused total kernel hang in 3.0 till 3.3 or so. Not it "works" in the sense that when a HDMI cable is connected, I get a picture on the connected monitor. But the primary display output, LVDS-2, stays black.
Here's the relevant dmesg parts:

When I start the intel framebuffer, the display is also black, but I found out that that is just the brightness set to 0, so I wrote a little too that writes to /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness to set a sensible brightness.
When the radeon screen stayed black, I assumed the same problem, so I changed my tool to also write to /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video1/brightness, but this does not help.
To check whether this was related to VGA switcheroo interactions, I compiled a kernel with no Intel driver in it and insmod'ed the radeon module. This time the LVDS display stayed in text mode and "hung" in the sense that the text did not continue scrolling.
I something is attacked on the HDMI output, that display gets a text console when I insmod radeon.
When I start X, the LVDS screen still stays broken, but the console disappears from the HDMI screen, and the laptop appears to hang. My default setup within X is to have an xterm, so I moved my mouse into that xterm (without seeing any of it) and started a shell script that uses xrandr to set up the second display, but nothing happened. It felt as if the Intel driver still felt responsible for LVDS.
Since I'm using X in non-radeon mode all the time, I have no Xorg.log left from my radeon testing. I can tell you though what was in it. No (EE) lines. I originally used X.org 1.12.3, then switched to 1.14 to see if that would make the problem disappear. I tried the latest release versions of libdrm and xf86-intel-radeon but when that did not work, I upgraded to the git versions of both. No improvement.
I can try again tonight at home and produce an Xorg.0.log for you.
