I use an open source DVR called MythTV. I've just swapped from using
nvidia graphics to intel graphics. Generally it's working great, but
I've run into one thing I used to do with the old system that I cannot
find out how to achieve with the new.
MythTV doesn't currently entirely handle starting without a TV
connected. With nvidia graphics I could specify, within the X config,
the "ConnectMonitor" and "CustomEDID" options to fool MythTV into
thinking there was a TV. With intel graphics I can load EDID, but
so far
I haven't discovered an equivalent of the "ConnectedMonitor" option.
Sorry for the delay, I seem to have missed this.
Please try a kernel command-line parameter to force enable the
connector.
video=TV-1:e
Assuming the connector name is "TV-1"; replace with whatever you have.
Thanks for the reply. I gave that a try, in my case "video=HDMI1:e", but
saw no difference. That's KMS, right? Is there anything I might have
failed to install or enable that KMS relies on? Are there any logs I
should monitor?
I think it should probably be HDMI-1 with the hyphen; is that a typo
above or in the command line you used?
Thanks for the continued help. I tried "video=HDMI1:e" because my Xorg
log listed outputs HDMI1, HDMI2, DP1 and VIRTUAL1. I've now tried
"video=HDMI-1:e", but still no luck.
Not wishing to hassle you, but before I give up, any further thoughts on
this? I have a solution at least, which is to use a EDID emulator, so
it's no great inconvenience how it is.
Cheers,
Paul.
