Hi,

I'm having trouble with an integrated i915 card, KMS and Linux >2.6.36.

The bug has been introduced somewhere between 2.6.36.1 (working) and 2.6.37 (bad) and is still happening on 2.6.38.6.

Kernel output (Images only, sorry):

00:02.1 0380: 8086:2e13 (rev 03)
Subsystem: 8086:1003

It only happens when I enable CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS.

Also, as of 2.6.37, the video= Kernel parameter doesn't have any effect anymore (set to video=1280x1024-24@75). It's working fine on 2.6.36.1.

Do you need anything else? Feel free to request additional information.

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,


Mihai
