today I upgraded my Fedora 9 workstation and my X broke again. This patch has been available for half a year now - what else can I do, as a good open source citizen, to get this simple one line patch to land and be used ?
Pushed this finally. Thanks again!
You've got an HDMI port and a VGA port. The connector table lists the DAC2 and the TMDSA controller both being routed to the HDMI port (although HDMI doesn't handle analog signals). Instead the DAC2 signal is routed to the VGA connector. There it shares the DDC lien with the HDMI connector - but of course VGA doesn't do HPD. This of course is not covered by our logic. Let me rethink the logic.
Actually, I don't think this can ever work without a quirk table entry -
how would you route a DAC that's routed to HDMI according to the
connector table? You would have to guess... Maybe you can get the logic
right that it guesses correctly in most cases, but it would be
difficult.
