That's because our HDMI only supports certain timings. To be honest, I don't really understand this restriction, as I believe the hardware should be able to use more or less any timings just like DVI. The 1366x768@60 mode is parsed with fbdev functions, which returns a video timings. These timings are then given to the HDMI driver, which tries to find matching timings from its timing table. And when it doesn't find a match, it fails. This is a known problem, and the hdmi driver would really need some love in other aspects also. I'm not sure what would be the best way to improve this without doing major rewrites. Perhaps the check in the hdmi driver could be more relaxed, but that needs some careful thought. > I can change the HDMI resolution OK from userspace with: > > echo "1" > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display1/enabled > echo "0" > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay0/enabled > echo "tv" > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay0/manager > echo "1" > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay0/enabled > echo "85500,1366/70/213/143,768/3/24/3" > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display1/timings That's because the above line has timings that are in the hdmi driver's table. They are somewhat different than what fbdev gives for "1366x768@60". > The reason to use HDMI instead of DVI here is that HDMI > also has the speakers on the lapdock ;) > > Then I'm able to switch between HDMI panel and DVI panel > just fine using overlay0.

Luckily, it was solved this week and we'll have a patch for next merge window to get this working. > echo "1" > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display0/enabled > echo "0" > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay1/enabled > echo "lcd2" > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay1/manager > echo "1" > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay1/enabled > echo "170666,1920/336/128/208,1200/38/1/3" > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display0/timings > > [ 816.446044] omapdss DPI: Could not find exact pixel clock.

Having said the above, I don't quite know where this error comes from... Tiler (DMM) is not even used by omapfb. Tomi
