Hi,
Testing out 4.3-rc2, first thing I notice is that the VGA output is not working. Specifically, the display is continuously powering on and off -- at no point is any image visible on the screen (I am expecting to see the console output). The display connected to the HDMI output is working fine.
Linux 4.2 did not suffer from this problem.
In dmesg I see the following messages, which I do not see on a working kernel. Full dmesg from 4.3-rc2 is attached (gzipped).
[ 0.115339] [drm:drm_calc_timestamping_constants] *ERROR* crtc 21: Can't calculate constants, dotclock = 0! [ 0.117582] [drm:intel_opregion_init] *ERROR* No ACPI video bus found
This is an older machine with Intel G45 graphics.
Unfortunately bisection is proving difficult, because the commits it wants me to test have a different problem: neither display comes up at all (both remain in standby). Partial results follow.
Thanks, Nick
