Hi,
I'm trying to get Linux + KMS Framebuffer up and running on a board that has 
this hardware configuration:

 - CPU: Intel Atom N2600
 - Chipset: Intel NM10
 - Integrated graphics system: Intel GMA 3600
 - LCD Panel with LVDS controller (LCD resolution is 800x480, 18 bpp, 60Hz)

I have downloaded the latest 3.6.6 linux kernel and configured for my board.

The configuration for the framebuffer section is like this:

To boot my new kernel I use these parameters: video=LVDS-1:800x480-18@60D 
drm.debug=0x06

The kernel boots correctly but the LCD screen is completely black (with 
backlight off).
Using SSH I can login to my system and have a look at dmesg:

I can't understand if I have done some mistakes in the kernel configuration 
(enabled some conflicting features)
or if there is still some other settings to configure to make Linux KMS + 
Framebuffer run correctly.



Thank you for any help/suggestions.

Best regards,
Samuele Forconi.
