That's true. > One known configuration that causes this is if you use DVI to VGA adapter. > Another configuration is if you use VX900 chipset (or possibly CX700, VX700, > VX800, or VX855 chipset) where VGA is not available, device is detected via > weird known device table, and LCD enable option is not listed in the weird > known device table. > If you can clarify your particular system configuration, that will be > appreciated. The device has a DVI *and* VGA output and while using DVI output (without adapter of any kind) we're getting a blank output. VGA output to VGA display works fine - this is what we use currently as a work- around. This is another issue however and is probably related to the topic you mentioned above and is not related to this bug. > I do understand that Canonical people do not want to tinker with the code, > and "think" that the current code is stable. > It is not. > Between Version 0.2.904 (used by Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and 12.04 LTS) and Version > 0.3.3, the previous developer broke VGA detection code if DVI to VGA adapter > is used. > This is a fatal regression. > One of the reason why I am holding up Version 0.3.4 release is due to this. I fully agree with you and I also want to see this fixed and present in Ubuntu. Unfortunately the rules (btw. those are Ubuntu rules rather than Canonical) are very strict and I don't think they can be bypassed in any way other that those described at the wiki pages (SRU and MRE). However, I would still like to provide any help necessary in making sure the new releases will be included in upcoming Ubuntu releases. Would you mind if we continue the discussion on the openchrome-devel mailing list?
