Changes from v5: * LVDS/DFP with attached DDC port can be queried * LVDS/DFP won't be misdetected as CRT if a DDC port is connected. http://www.shaftnet.org/users/pizza/radeonfb-atom-2.6.17-v5b.diff http://www.shaftnet.org/users/pizza/radeonfb-atom-2.6.18-v5b.diff Meanwhile, I've rolled in some other work to create v6 of the patch,=20 this time against 2.6.18-rc6 only:=20 http://www.shaftnet.org/users/pizza/radeonfb-atom-2.6.18-v6.diff Changes from v5b: (Note -- many of these changes were taken in part from an older patch by Claudio Ciccan; I kept what was relevant and tossed the rest) * Added many new radeon PCI IDs (X300/X600/X700/X800/X850) * R4x0 series gets R300 tweaks (from Xorg) * Cap VRAM to 128M (Not really sure why.. related to mmap bugs?) * Add default_dynclk to builtin argument parsing. * Expanded the register mmio size to max (64k vs former 16k) (was there a reason why it wasn't already maxed?) * Initialization tweaks for R300 and RS300 (from Xorg) I'd really like to see the v6 patch (or its successors) go in to 2.6.19,=20 as the existing radeonfb driver simply won't work with newer radeon=20 cards -- to say nothing about its multihead detection quirks. So, I encourage everyone with a radeon card to give this new driver a=20 whirl, especially if you have an X-series radeon board or if you were=20 having head detection problems with the existing driver.=20 Please run this with CONFIG_FB_RADEON_DEBUG on, so if something goes=20 wrong I can get it fixed up. =20 There at least one known corner case where things could go wrong (LVDS/DFP port has an associated DDC port, but no EDID information is available) but I'm already working on that.
