Date: Wed, 29 Feb 2012 20:12:59 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] i915: Add option to bypass vbt table.
Add an option to skip reading the mode entries from the vbt bios tables. This change enables the use of displays where the vbt table just contains inapropriate values, but either the vesa defaults or
inap*p*ropriate
the video=... modes do something sensible with the attached display.
