Thanks for the patch I will give this a spin on my gma500 and i915 hardware on monday. The gma500 sdvo code should be pretty much identical to i915 from around 2011 but I guess we've diverged since then. I'll also rework sdvo for gma500 a little in the coming days when I start working on Minnowboard support so I'll probably compare it to i915 for any peculiarities. -Patrik _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
