(fixed on C1 units) if the latter, and you have signal in OFW but not linux, be sure your upgrade to q7b09 was successful. linux hdmi won't work without it. paul =- paul fox, p...@laptop.org ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

I am getting HDMI signal in OFW, but the second it boots to Linux, my TV reports it doesn't have signal. This will always happen as the clocks get reset and the signal needs to be resynced. if the former, and you're using a B1 unit (and i assume you are), then there's a good chance that the cable isn't making contact properly. I do have a B1 unit, but since I'm getting signal in OFW, that would mean the connection is fine. Not necessarily. There are many pins associated with hdmi. You may be able to generate a signal that works, but the linux connection relies on being able to read the EDID information from the television as well. Without logs we can only guess what is going on. if the latter, and you have signal in OFW but not linux, be sure your upgrade to q7b09 was successful. linux hdmi won't work without it. Yes, the firmware upgrade to q7b09 was successful. I just doublechecked it to be sure. Has anyone else tested this yet? The B1's have flaky hdmi connectivity at best. Not only were there jack location problems that needed to be addressed, but they were susceptible to ESD causing a failure in the hot-plug detection circuit. These are both reasons why HDMI would fail to work under Linux. -Jon ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
