Bug#722551: Several display resolution changes during the boot sequence with Intel Ivy Bridge despite "fastboot" promise since xf86-video-intel 2.21.11

2016-07-24 Thread Thibaut

Hi,

Since there has been a lot of work on Intel driver internals to fit the 
atomic paradigm, I'd like to point out that Intel 2016Q1 Stack Release 
(based upon Linux Kernel 4.4) mentions :

- Fastboot, built on top of atomic infrastructure

Thanks

Hi,

Debian 8 is now released since a few months and is really great.

However Fastboot, released more than 2 years ago through Linux
kernel and Intel driver to be able to keep
the same screen resolution during all the boot sequence, is still not
used in Debian.

Having this bug fixed for Debian 9 would be great.

Thanks !

 Hi,

 Since xf86-video-intel 2.21.11 (June 30, 2013), fastboot is possible for
 Intel HD Graphics which means that it is theorically possible to keep
 the same screen resolution during all the boot sequence. [1]

 However this benefit is still not available in Debian whrereas it could
 give a more robust, more professional look to its boot sequence.

 Moreover, with Linux 3.15, Fastboot will also be available for Haswell
 and Broadwell hardware. [2]

 Could it be possible to enable this feature within Debian ?

 Thanks

Hi,

Maybe I'm not supposed to make a raise but let me know if you need
more information : this bug is till there on Debian GNU/Linux Sid 64
bits with Ivy Bridge graphics.

Thanks

Package: grub-pc
Version: 2.00-18

Hi,

I've read carefully the xf86-video-intel 2.21.11 announce on the
Intel-gfx mailing list with its fastboot promise [1]

However i don't have it on my Ivy Bridge system [2] with
xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.21.15 - see my boot sequence video which
resizes here : http://libre-ouvert.toile-libre.org/data/documents/MVI_3575.AVI
(48,8 Mo, 26 sec)

Chris Wilson from Intel told me that this would rather be a bug within
Debian [3]

Julien Cristau (Debian X Strike Force) told me that it's not a bug in
the driver (Bug#722435)

Therefore maybe grub2 is concerned ?

I am using Debian GNU/Linux Sid with :
- Linux debian 3.10-2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.10.7-1 (2013-08-17) x86_64 GNU/Linux
- libc6 2.17-92+b1

Thanks

[1] the DDX will try to preserve the same display configuration as
used by the kernel, which hopefully will be the same configuration as
setup by the BIOS. The result should be a boot sequence that does not
resize at all (aka fastboot) - until the display manager takes over
and loads a completely different configuration

I've attached the result of lspci and lshw commands

[3] All we mean is that we avoid extraneous mode changes. That your
system doesn't boot to desktop under 2 seconds from after POST is a
distribution bug
