Subject: [PATCH 7/17] atyfb: Get initial mode timings from LCD BIOS
Date: Tue, 18 Oct 2005 17:17:36 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4354BDB0.2070103@gmail.com> (raw)

Reported by: Jean-Philippe Guérard (Bugzilla Bug 1782)

"I've tried with video=atyfb:debug and video=atyfb:debug,mode:1280x600, \
nomtrr.

In both case, the screen stays black, but seems divided into 4 vertical
bands. Some white lines pop up randomly on each vertical band."

The problem is a combination of an incorrect xclk plus lack of timing
information.  The adapter is attached to an LCD device that can do
1280x600 (which is not a standard resolution).  The global mode database
does not have an entry for it.  Fortunately, the Video BIOS contains the
complete timing info for this display, however, atyfb is not making use
of it.

Add support to get the timing information from the BIOS, if available.
