Introduced by: a6ed76d7ffc62ffa474b41d31b011b6853c5de32 is the first bad commit commit a6ed76d7ffc62ffa474b41d31b011b6853c5de32 Author: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs at redhat.com> Date: Mon Jul 12 15:33:07 2010 +1000 drm/nouveau: support fetching LVDS EDID from ACPI Based on a patch from Matthew Garrett. Signed-off-by: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs at redhat.com> Acked-by: Matthew Garrett <mjg at redhat.com> :040000 040000 2fbe9b4d9778329908107e72c11b100c2f5a460b 97dcf06923bb576298746584c45d17d3be9edcf8 M drivers It doesn't seem to revert cleanly, but the problem lies in these two config entries: CONFIG_ACPI=y CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO=m Adding a select for ACPI_VIDEO appears to be the best solution, and is comparable to what is done in DRM_I915. Builds, boots, and appears to work correctly. Signed-off-by: Philip J. Turmel <philip at turmel.org> --- The first version disabled all ACPI functions in the nouveau driver if ACPI_VIDEO wasn't set. Francisco Jerez <currojerez at riseup.net> pointed out that this didn't make much sense. diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/Kconfig b/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/Kconfig index d2d2804..72730e9 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/Kconfig +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/Kconfig @@ -10,6 +10,7 @@ config DRM_NOUVEAU select FB select FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE if !EMBEDDED select FB_BACKLIGHT if DRM_NOUVEAU_BACKLIGHT + select ACPI_VIDEO if ACPI help Choose this option for open-source nVidia support.
