Oh interesting - didn't know voltage was directly tied to clock frequency here. Makes sense then to not allow it (at least if that circuitry isn't shared with DP, as the DP link runs at much higher clock (540Mhz actually), but I suppose it's really different there). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
