The warnings thing is the firmware watching for undervoltage and then it calls into dispmanx to overlay a little rainbow box on the screen. This of course interferes with our display setup. I think we'll be able to wire up notifications to Linux for undervoltage, at which point we can do something useful with that information, ourselves. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
