Re: [GNU-linux-libre] Differences between Trisquel's kernel and linux-libre for i915 (video)

Hi there, it appears you've reached the wrong mailing list - this one
isn't for the kernel. The correct one can be found at
https://linux-libre.fsfla.org. However, it's probably not useful to
start another one there. As a case in point, I've already sought
information from yet another separate location. Having this
conversation spread out over many places might not be useful.

[GNU-linux-libre] Differences between Trisquel's kernel and linux-libre for i915 (video)

[Edgar Lux via gnu-linux-libre]

Hello.

I got a recommendation to reach out to the linux-libre mailing list on 
Parabola's forum. Sorry for cross-posting (this is mostly a copy from a post on 
Trisquel).

I have this system:

https://labs.parabola.nu/attachments/1587
(Intel Corporation Alder Lake-P Integrated Graphics Controller).

I am able to boot Trisquel with video and HDMI (which sounds great), but the 
same system with linux-libre 6.7 from FSFLA 
(https://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/freesh/pool/main/f/freesh-archive-keyring/freesh-archive-keyring_1.1_all.deb)
 stops half-way into the init process (after GRUB).

When using the kernel from Trisquel's repository, lspci shows:

Kernel driver in use: i915
Kernel modules: i915

Now, I am wondering what is going on. Why is the kernel from FSFLA not doing 
the same thing?

On Trisquel's forum, jxself mentioned that there may be different reasons and 
may need more information. Let me know if I should stay there or continue here. 
Thanks.
