Some CedarView VBT-s claim that there is a LVDS panel, while there is none.
Specifically this happens on the Thecus N2800 / N5550 NAS models.
This commit adds a LVDS blacklist to deal with this and adds an entry for
the Thecus NAS-es.
Hi Hans,
Sometimes LVDS can be configured in the BIOS on CDV devices. Can you
check that it's not just a bad BIOS configuration first?
I've asked the reporter to test, but even if there is a BIOS option it
seems that the BIOS default setting is wrong and we cannot expect every
user to go into the BIOS to fix a wrong BIOS setting.
According to this blogpost, which is about the Linux the device ships with:
https://astroweasel.blogspot.com/2016/02/updating-thecus-n5550-nas-to-report.html
The pre-installed grub config includes 'video=LVDS-1:d' on the kernel
commandline, so this clearly seems to be a case where the system is just
shipping with a broken BIOS or at least with default BIOS settings which
is just as bad.
Regards,
Hans
