This patch does not work for me. With this patch applied kernel fails to read EDID data and discover proper modes. (It ends up displaying a picture looking like the BIOS bootup image). X fails to start finding no valid mode for LVDS output.
Without the patch Xorg doesn't start either, being blocked in same area as listed earlier in this thread: [ 373.719792] Xorg D 00000000 1704 2295 2216 [ 373.719803] da9a1dc4 00203082 dd3f0080 00000000 00000000 dd8c0990 dd84e800 00000000 [ 373.719817] dd84ea4c ffffffff dd84ea50 da9a1de8 c036950e dd8c0990 dd84ea50 dd84ea50 [ 373.719832] dd8c0990 dd84ea4c dd84f000 dd84e800 da9a1df8 c0369479 dd84f000 dd822000 [ 373.719845] Call Trace: [ 373.719855] [<c036950e>] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x5e/0x90 [ 373.719864] [<c0369479>] mutex_lock+0x19/0x20 [ 373.719876] [<c0278ed0>] intel_lvds_get_modes+0x60/0x90 [ 373.719889] [<c0269069>] drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes+0x89/0x220 [ 373.719898] [<c036946e>] ? mutex_lock+0xe/0x20 [ 373.719908] [<c02674a1>] drm_mode_getconnector+0x261/0x300 [ 373.719922] [<c025d850>] drm_ioctl+0xe0/0x2b0 [ 373.719932] [<c0267240>] ? drm_mode_getconnector+0x0/0x300 [ 373.719942] [<c025d770>] ? drm_ioctl+0x0/0x2b0 [ 373.719951] [<c0174757>] vfs_ioctl+0x67/0x70 [ 373.719960] [<c0174d2a>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x1fa/0x520 [ 373.719969] [<c0158553>] ? handle_mm_fault+0xd3/0x480 [ 373.719980] [<c01b3f42>] ? reiserfs_file_write+0x82/0xb0 [ 373.719988] [<c016a675>] ? vfs_write+0xe5/0x120 [ 373.719997] [<c01b3ec0>] ? reiserfs_file_write+0x0/0xb0 [ 373.720005] [<c0175089>] sys_ioctl+0x39/0x60 [ 373.720014] [<c0103105>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x25 Laptop is Acer Travelmate 660.
