Do you know which version > of the XO-1.5 you are working with? It's probably just that you tested http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=summary while I'm talking about http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git;a=summary which is pretty much what linus tree will look like after the next merge window and includes http://github.com/schandinat/linux-2.6/tree/viafb-next I think the most relevant patch in it concerning the issue you mentioned is http://github.com/schandinat/linux-2.6/commit/e029ab0d02b94d633d8e82a46dfdb7fd94a62216 at least that was the point in time where I got rid of the old OLPC-specific patch which disabled tmds and lvds identification. (there still is a big diff between linus tree and the XO 1.5 tree I run but at least viafb should work well after the next merge window) Thanks, Florian Tobias Schandinat
