I just installed an ATI Radeon 9000 Pro video card in my primary Linux system, along with a DFP (hp pavilion f70). Things are not working as I expected...
When I have the DFP connected to the Radeon's DVI port, I can not use the frambuffer in Xfree86 4.1 (it complains there is no /dev/fb0), and the log states:
Mar 17 13:02:03 Tycho kernel: radeonfb_pci_register BEGIN Mar 17 13:02:03 Tycho kernel: radeonfb: ref_clk=2700, ref_div=12, xclk=27500 from BIOS Mar 17 13:02:03 Tycho kernel: radeonfb: probed DDR SGRAM 65536k videoram Mar 17 13:02:03 Tycho kernel: radeonfb: panel ID string: ªhé¬^E Mar 17 13:02:03 Tycho kernel: radeonfb: detected DFP panel size from BIOS: 1x0 Mar 17 13:02:03 Tycho kernel: radeonfb: Failed to detect DFP panel size
When I have the DFP attached to the Radeon's VGA port, I can run the DFP (albeit in analog more), and the log states:
Mar 17 13:13:05 Tycho kernel: radeonfb_pci_register BEGIN Mar 17 13:13:05 Tycho kernel: radeonfb: ref_clk=2700, ref_div=12, xclk=27500 from BIOS Mar 17 13:13:05 Tycho kernel: radeonfb: probed DDR SGRAM 65536k videoram Mar 17 13:13:05 Tycho kernel: radeonfb: ATI Radeon 9000 If DDR SGRAM 64 MB Mar 17 13:13:05 Tycho kernel: radeonfb: DVI port CRT monitor connected Mar 17 13:13:05 Tycho kernel: radeonfb: CRT port no monitor connected Mar 17 13:13:05 Tycho kernel: radeonfb_pci_register END
Before I start digging around in the drivers/video/radeonfb.c file, I'm wondering if this problem is known, and if a workaround is available.
