You need a device specific GOP driver for graphics in UEFI. 

Thanks … br

Subject: [edk2] How to use a VGA adapter

Hello,

I'm using the UDK2015 release and I want to enable the Graphic Output on a PCI 
VGA adapter (PCI class code: 3, 0, 0). My VGA device doesn't provide any ROM.

In my FDF I've included the VgaMiniPortDxe and the VgaClassDxe. I haven't 
enabled the CSM layer.

When my board boots the screen doesn't display anything. The PCI device is 
enumerated (device found with pci command on the EFI shell).

Must I include another EFI driver to activate and/or initialize the VGA adapter 
or are these 2 drivers sufficient to enable the VGA display?
Can I use the VGA without the CSM layer?

Note: the display had already worked with a GOP driver on an AMD GPU. Is it 
possible to enable the GOP layer with the VGA layer?

Regards.

Cédric
