You could try it for some hacking and testing, perhaps, but not recommended for normal use. > Are there any reference documents describing the IEGD Port attributes? Generally speaking, we don't know about the IEGD driver on this list. Check wherever you got that driver from, or see [1] for generic hardware documentation. > Below is the xorg.conf with the iegd settings.

Must be a special board to have multiple LVDS panels; I'm not even sure we support that in the i915 driver. For at least getting one to work, you could fabricate an EDID, make sure your kernel has CONFIG_DRM_LOAD_EDID_FIRMWARE=y, and set drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=<connector>:<file> module parameter. See Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt for details on the parameter. Oh, also please enable drm.debug=0xe module parameter, and attach the dmesg all the way from early boot. That will give us more details about your hardware, and maybe some ideas what to try. BR, Jani.
