            Bug ID: 60710
           Summary: Radeon RV530 I2C failure with DVI monitor.
           Product: Drivers
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 3.10.5
          Hardware: i386
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: Video(DRI - non Intel)
          Assignee: drivers_video-dri@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: rankincj@yahoo.com
        Regression: No

Experimenting with my T60p laptop with built-in M66GL chip (~RV530?); 1680x1050
LVDS panel + 1920x1200 LCD monitor. Also attached to a docking station with
HD4650 card, and 1920x1080 HDTV connected to that.

This combination seems to start up fine. However, when I was trying to switch
my primary display to be the HDTV, the latop "beeped" at me and then shut down
all displays. Studying my logs later revealed the following:

Aug  6 15:21:39 lantern kernel: [TTM] Illegal buffer object size
Aug  6 15:21:39 lantern kernel: [TTM] Illegal buffer object size

Aug  6 15:21:39 lantern kernel: [drm:r500_hw_i2c_xfer] *ERROR* failed to get

After this point, only the LVDS panel would work. Worse, I had to boot with
"radeon.hw_i2c=0" before I was able to turn the 1920x1200 monitor back on with:

$ xrandr --output DVI-0 --auto

Now that everything is (finally!) working again as it used to, XRandR is
reporting this:

$ xrandr -q

I don't know what happened - all I know is that HW I2C broke suddenly and had
to be disabled completely before I could restore everything. However, I have
since turned HW I2C back on - and it's fine again!

Did I push something over the edge of a cliff?
