[Bug 25218] New: TV/EDID strangeness
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25218 Summary: TV/EDID strangeness Product: xorg Version: 7.4 Platform: x86 (IA32) OS/Version: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Driver/radeonhd AssignedTo: eich@pdx.freedesktop.org ReportedBy: joy+freedesktop@entuzijast.net QAContact: xorg-team@lists.x.org Hi, I've got a Thinkpad T400 (the same one described previously in bug 22279 :) with a Mobility Radeon HD 3400. When I run Windows (Vista) and plug in my Sony TV into the VGA port on the laptop, that driver notices that something's been plugged in and responds by sending over a normal picture to it, max resolution 1360x768. However, the Linux driver doesn't seem to get it. xrandr consistently shows that VGA_1 is "disconnected". I can force it, with a script like this: xrandr --output VGA_1 --off xrandr --prop xrandr --output VGA_1 --auto xrandr --newmode 1360x768_60.00 84.75 1360 1432 1568 1776 768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync xrandr --addmode VGA_1 1360x768_60.00 xrandr --output VGA_1 --mode 1360x768_60.00 xrandr --output VGA_1 --left-of PANEL xrandr --prop I often have to run this script several times before it catches on. Eventually however it works, and then the card starts sending output via VGA out. If I run xrandr --prop, it *occasionally* reports: VGA_1 connected 1360x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 1600mm x 900mm EDID_DATA: 00ffffffffffff004dd900ff01010101 1412010308a05a780a0dc9a057479827 12484c21080081800101010101010101 010101010101662150b051001b304070 360040846300001e0e1f008051001e30 4080370040846300001c000000fd0039 3f1e3109000a202020202020000000fc 00534f4e592054560a2020202020005a _PanningArea: _OutputNumber: 3 (0x00000003) ConnectorNumber: 3 (0x00000003) ConnectorType: VGA SignalFormat: VGA supported: VGA 1360x768 60.0 + 60.0 1280x768 59.9 1024x768 60.0 800x600 60.3 640x480 60.0 1360x768_60.00 59.8* Other times, it's just: VGA_1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) _PanningArea: _OutputNumber: 3 (0x00000003) ConnectorNumber: 3 (0x00000003) ConnectorType: VGA SignalFormat: VGA supported: VGA 1360x768_60.00 59.8 In any case, once the picture is turned on, it looks like the driver continues to have some kind of a problem - the picture flickers and keeps getting readjusted, and the Xorg and xfdesktop processes start eating a lot of CPU. I then proceed to run: xrandr --output VGA_1 --preferred and xrandr --prop a few more times, and eventually everything settles down, and I get 1360x768 on the other screen.
