Yeah right, we do need to keep polling working for DP too, but only for long pulse hpd replacement. As long as a DP cable is plugged in I haven't seen reports of a storm. But indeed hdmi crap can induce a storm on a DP+ connector too. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
