Subject: [PATCH 0/2] drm/vmwgfx: Fix various black screen issues
Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2016 17:14:46 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1467245688-24449-1-git-send-email-syeh@vmware.com> (raw)
This series is to address various unrecoverable black screen
issues: after mode set or during initial installation. To work
around these issues, we have to be conservative about which
modes to make available. This approach may potentially cause a
regression for advanced users who want higher-res modes at a lower
color format (bpp).
To prevent this regression, we introduced a new vmwgfx kernel
parameter.
