Bleh. That's unfortunate. Presumably in "Native EFI" mode, displays work fine with efifb until nouveau takes over? There was a time when the blob did *something* weird which defeated nouveau's display logic (when flipping between the two drivers). Perhaps this Native EFI mode does something along those lines as well. (Although in those cases, running the VBIOS didn't help... although each VBIOS is a unique snowflake. In some other cases, double-running the VBIOS leads to a hung GPU. Urgh.) -ilia _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau
