Why didn't you just asked me?
I was told on #radeon you're on holidays ;) I was trying to catch you.

I'm on vacation right now, but got back yesterday and now greping
though my accumulated mails ;)


I've figured this out over five years ago by applying brute force to one of the "magic" DVI->HDMI adapters that came with my original RV635. And it
indeed contains an extra EEPROM on the I2C bus ;)
Did you find any way to workaround this? So I can use my generic
adapter with fglrx for audio?

Not that I know of any, well those adapters where only used on the
early RV6xx HDMI days. IIRC my later RV7xx worked well with the
10meters DVI->HDMI cable fglrx on RV6xx failed.

Hello to both of you!

Christian, is there any change to get HDMI audio out of my 2 x Dual-Link DVI RV730 AGP ports with one of those adapters (were can I get one) or is the poor little one which came with the gfx card (SAPPHIRE HD 4650 1GB DDR2 AGP) enough?


Hi Dieter,

for the open source driver you don't need any of those adapters. They are only used by fglrx to identify the "original" adapters that came with the board.

So the poor little one which came with the gfx card should be sufficient, but if you want to use fglrx + some other adapter you might run into problems.

Christian.

Thanks,
   Dieter

PS Rafał, with the right solution I can maybe help you with your investigation ;-)
