radeon + DVI->mDP converter + mDP display blank screen issue since 3.0

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi!

Since Linux 3.0, a system with a Radeon HD 5450 (1002:68f9) connected
to a 27" Apple LED cinema display via an Atlona AT-DP400 Dual Link DVI
to Mini DisplayPort converter has started to stop giving screen
output on switching from text mode to graphical framebuffer during
system startup.

I finally had some time to look at this, and it seems to have stopped
working after this commit:

	commit df271bec805b42527d864777ed035fcbb42e76c0
	Author: Alex Deucher <alexdeucher@xxxxxxxxx>
	Date:   Fri May 20 04:34:15 2011 -0400

	    drm/radeon/kms: properly handle bpc >8 in atom command tables
	    
	    Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher <alexdeucher@xxxxxxxxx>
	    Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@xxxxxxxxxx>

...and with the patch below (i.e. reverting part of the commit above)
applied to 3.3 I get screen output again.

Even though the monitor seems to have an 8 bit panel, it reports 10
bits per channel in its EDID:

	[...]
	Manufacturer: APP Model 9226 Serial Number 41959462
	Made week 38 of 2010
	EDID version: 1.4
	Digital display
	10 bits per primary color channel
	DisplayPort interface
	Maximum image size: 60 cm x 34 cm
	[...]

The (active, dual link) DVI->mDP converter spec sheet says it supports
24 bit color, and I'm guessing that it can't deal with 30.  Is the
converter at fault here for passing through the EDID unchanged?

Also, what would be the right way to handle this, a kernel command
line or module option to limit color depth or something like that?
("Buy a video card with DP output." is a valid answer, I suppose.)

I have no clue at all about graphics, and I have no idea whatsoever
what I'm doing here, but I just wanted to post this somewhere for
Google to find in case someone else runs into this!


thanks,
Lennert
