Well, we know for sure that fdi link training is broken - it doesn't match at all what the spec says we should do. I've been working on this lately, since in quite a few circumstances the link train fails without the relevent bits indicating so. While testing I've also noticed that this entire thing is highly timing dependent, e.g. denpending upon which desktop is running and which tool I use to change the configuration it fails or succeeds. So I have no suggestions for what could help your system and what should get backported, since the current code is still broken. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch

[REGRESSION] i915: failure to interoperate with HP ZR30w using an X230
I recently upgraded to 3.6.3, and my Lenovo X230 has stopped being able to work with an HP ZR30w 30 2560x1600 display. I saw the following messages in the dmesg: [drm:ivb_manual_fdi_link_train] *ERROR* FDI train 1 fail! [drm:ivb_manual_fdi_link_train] *ERROR* FDI train 2 fail! .. which I didn't see before; the exact same mini-displayport to displayport cable connecting the same Lenovo X230 laptop to exactly the same ZRW 30 display worked just fine with the 3.6.0 kernel. So I bisected the problem, and found the following commit. Reverting this commit made the problem go away. Maybe we should revert 0c96c65b48fb in mainline? Let me know if you'd like me to do any further debugging.
