[BUG][2.6.3-rc2] Unable to turn display on with ASUS L3D

[BUG][2.6.3-rc2] Unable to turn display on with ASUS L3D

[Luca]

Hi,
my notebook is  an ASUS L3350D, with BIOS 0113. Using  linux 2.6.3-rc2 I
see no output on the display. 2.6.2 works well.

I'm using a custom DSDT, but this is the only change (to enable C2):

LCD is on:

kronos-ZfjlkMfYLo8@public.gmane.org:~$ cat /proc/acpi/asus/lcd
1

But:

kronos-ZfjlkMfYLo8@public.gmane.org:~$ cat /proc/acpi/asus/disp
0

echo 1 > /proc/acpi/asus/disp hangs the system but turns the lcd on.
These are the last lines I see (with debug_level = 0x000000ff):

The machine is hardlocked (do not respond to pings). Fn+F8 doen't hang
the machine but doen't turn on the display as well.

I can turn leds on/off and can echo {0,1} asus/lcd (but LCD stays blank) without problems.
This is the bootlog:

Please boot with noapic or nolapic.
There was a patch floating around that might have helped, search the
bugzilla...

Thank  you for  the reply. I  made  other tests  and it  seems that  the
problem isn't ACPI related. LCD stays  off event without the ASUS stuff,
but goes on  using old sisfs driver with the  new acpi4asus driver. So I
guess that it's sisfb fault.
