 ## -c 1 may have to change to be the right CRTC number

More than that - I suspect "won't be possible"?

Perhaps Niklas, Jacopo, or Uli could help ?

Do any of you have a Gen2 platform - and a monitor/TV capable of showing
interlaced display output?

Expected outcome ... a clean output of the standard kmstest pattern for
the sanity test.

For:
kmstest -c 1 -r 1920x1080i --flip


Good:
  A clean view of the usual 'flip' bar moving from left to right across
the screen.
 Must visually check the following for good result:
  - No 'tearing' on the vertical bar
  - A full height bar, showing the colours, red, green, and blue,
followed by 3 shades of grey; each separated by a white block.
  - cleanly drawn frame numbers



Bad symptoms
 - Half height frames
   (only RGB, or 3 Grey shades showing in the flip bar)

 - Tearing or image racing of any kind (check the frame numbers as they
overdraw on the moving bar. Any blurring of the numbers as the bar
travels past is a fail)
