My patch would break tvout support for other cards so I won`t submit it as a patch. I can say I found the problem and have locally fixed it. In the kernel code there is "kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_tv.c" that has a function called "intel_tv_init( struct drm_device *dev)" at the line +-1550. In there the driver checks for tv outyness. If you look at the function, there are many points at which the init can fail. My asus A51e failed in the checking vbts section. through the miracle of slash slash based optimisation, I removed that check and now I have tvout working on the laptop with 3.2.x I will check if it works with 3.11+.
You need to get the kernel code from git and then apply a patch. remember: git checkout apply the fix copy a .config from your /boot dir to your src dir make -j #cpus +1 make -j #cpus +1 modules make -j #cpus +1 modules_install make -j #cpus +1 deb_pkg cd .. dpkg -i linux*.deb enjoy. I will cross post this on a few bugs to get some negative karma. :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/921636 Title: intel GM965 (X3100) no TV-Out (S-Video) Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: I have a Intel GM965 integrated video card and SVGA out is not working. It does work with 10.04, all subsequent versions it no longer works. Currently using development version 12.04 updated daily. The TV is detected, I can see the screen flicker while it is being detected, and I can move the mouse to it, but the TV screen is black. stefan@stefan-Extensa-5220:~$ lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile PM965/GM965/GL960 Memory Controller Hub (rev 03) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (primary) (rev 03) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (secondary) (rev 03) 00:1a.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #4 (rev 03) 00:1a.1 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #5 (rev 03) 00:1a.7 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller #2 (rev 03) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 1 (rev 03) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 2 (rev 03) 00:1c.2 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 3 (rev 03) 00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #1 (rev 03) 00:1d.1 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #2 (rev 03) 00:1d.2 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #3 (rev 03) 00:1d.7 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller #1 (rev 03) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev f3) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801HM (ICH8M) LPC Interface Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801HM/HEM (ICH8M/ICH8M-E) IDE Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801HM/HEM (ICH8M/ICH8M-E) SATA Controller [IDE mode] (rev 03) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) SMBus Controller (rev 03) 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM5787M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 02) 04:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01) 0f:06.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCIxx12 Cardbus Controller 0f:06.1 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments PCIxx12 OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller 0f:06.2 Mass storage controller: Texas Instruments 5-in-1 Multimedia Card Reader (SD/MMC/MS/MS PRO/xD) 0f:06.3 SD Host controller: Texas Instruments PCIxx12 SDA Standard Compliant SD Host Controller stefan@stefan-Extensa-5220:~$ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2080 x 800, maximum 8192 x 8192 LVDS1 connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 331mm x 207mm 1280x800 60.0*+ 1024x768 60.0 800x600 60.3 56.2 640x480 59.9 VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) TV1 connected 800x600+1280+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm 848x480 30.0 + 640x480 30.0 + 1024x768 30.0 800x600 30.0* stefan@stefan-Extensa-5220:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu precise (development branch) Release: 12.04 stefan@stefan-Extensa-5220:~$ apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-intel xserver-xorg-video-intel: Installed: 2:2.17.0+git20120120.a0c4024e-0ubuntu0sarvatt Candidate: 2:2.17.0+git20120120.a0c4024e-0ubuntu0sarvatt Version table: *** 2:2.17.0+git20120120.a0c4024e-0ubuntu0sarvatt 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 2:2.17.0-1ubuntu3 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/921636/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
