I'm running the Polusbo driver (PPA based) as described on this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsPoulsbo/ This is on 9.10 with the 2.6.31-17 kernel.
It mostly works and is a great improvement over non-accelerated X. However, I have a problem when booting. When X initially starts, it seems to query my monitor for capabilities - lots of screen flashes, etc. Only after I get fully logged in does it settle down and use the display setup I chose (1024x768-70Hz). This behaviour is OK on a CRT, but it drives my LCD panels nuts! So much so that they always check out and the boot hangs. Is there some option I can give this driver to keep it from doing this? Maybe specify only a particular display layout? I have to deploy this to a big-screen projector which I know will not work under these circumstances, so finding a solution is pretty important. Is there some list or contact at Intel or Phoronix that knows about this driver? Thanks for any pointers. -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Gary Thomas | Consulting for the MLB Associates | Embedded world ------------------------------------------------------------ -- Ubuntu-mobile mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-mobile
