https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88501 Bug ID: 88501 Summary: AMD/ATI RS690M Console blanks to white Product: Drivers Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 3.6.0-rc5 to 3.18.0-rc4 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: Video(DRI - non Intel) Assignee: drivers_video-dri@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: business.kid@xxxxxxxxx Regression: Yes Created attachment 158181 --> https://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=158181&action=edit Git Bisect log, & git visualise o/p Without X running, linux consoles blank after a period adjustable by setterm. Mine does not. It goes white. If I invert the screen colours, it goes whiter. Backlight? I cloned the Linus-stable git and tried it. 3.18.0-rc4 twists this slightly - The FIRST time the screen blanks, it does so correctly; every other time, it blanks to white. I'm a hardware guy, not a software expert. Git bisect gives the output below. Details of the box also attached The box is a HP 6715S, twin core Turion, 3G ram. It's running Slackware-current as of Sept 30th, 2014. LSPCI output attached. Bios Version: ATI 02/13/08,1. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
