Comment(by Richard.Kralovic):

 Ok, it looks like a hardware bug in ram. I run attached simple memory
 testing application and it indeed found 1 bit errors... I just hope I'll
 be able to get a replacement...

 Thanks, I've applied the patch to subversion (Rev. 4696)

Comment(by andy):

 Last time I looked at Xglamo sources it seemed to be based on a cut and
 paste of the kernel framebuffer driver for Glamo.  There was stuff like
 locking for modal command queue and so on that didn't cooperate with the
 kernel side implementation for example.

 Rather than adding things to XGlamo it might make sense to do these things
 on kernel side alone, for example with a callback to machine specific
 stuff whenever the backlight is enabled or disabled?

 the glamo chip has very fine-grained power management features (such as
 clock-gating to every hardware functional unit).  None of those features
 seem to be curently used in xglamo.

 All I can find is a function to enable the clocking for a particular unit,
 but no function to disable the clocking, and thus no code that ever
 switches off any functional unit.

 This is important when e.g. going to screen-blank situation.  We can
 switch off the clocks to 2D engine, the DAC block, even disable any output
 of the high-frequency video signal.

 And please don't tell me this is not worth optimizing because the system
 will suspend to RAM soon after blanking the screen.  Imagine your mp3/ogg
 player running on the device.  You will not suspend to ram, but still
 don't want to waste power generating a video signal that nobody can see
 due to backlight being blanked

#2061: LCM (jbt6k74) doesn't go to sleep/deep_standby modes
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  laforge          |          Owner:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
     Type:  enhancement      |         Status:  new

-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
 The LCM itself supports three power modes, and the jbt6k74 driver exports
 the switch between the power modes to userspace.

 However, there seems to be no userspace power management to actually take
 care of doing this.

 Therefore, one suggested solution is to register with the framebuffer
 notifier and switch the LCM off whenever the backlight is switched off.

Comment(by cedric.berger):

 if you have to live with faulty ram, I guess "badram" might help.
 [http://rick.vanrein.org/linux/badram/]
 I did not check this since a while ago. But I do not think it is yet
 included in standard kernel ?

Comment(by andy):

 It's the same bit wrong in both the memtest and the error seen in the
 actual file too.  I would contact your vendor about it for a replacement.
 64MB of the RAM is in the CPU module, the other 64MB is external, it's
 quite possible then half the physical memory is fine and half is broken.
 As you allocate more virtual memory, it might start to use the second,
 broken half after some time.
