On https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64178
I had a similar problem for which I found a very similar 'workaround':
Assuming the Xserver is displaying a mode a on output A, doing a:
xrandr --output A --off
xrandr --output A --mode a
will not light up the screen.
This all sounds quite similar, to the issues describe by this patch,
however the patch as is will not fix this issue: With this setup the
fb does not change. The crtc_connector_off() test however only runs if
set->crtc->fb != set->fb is true.
Thus the connector_off() test needs to happen before:
- if (set->crtc->fb != set->fb) {
+ if (set->connectors != NULL &&
+ connector_off(set->crtc, *set->connectors,
+ set->num_connectors)) {
+ config->mode_changed = true;
+ } else if (set->crtc->fb != set->fb) {
Mind the test for set->connectors != NULL as now the connectors list
may be empty.
Cheers,
Egbert.
