My patch would break tvout support for other cards so I won`t submit it as a patch. I can say I found the problem and have locally fixed it. In the kernel code there is "kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_tv.c" that has a function called "intel_tv_init( struct drm_device *dev)" at the line +-1550. In there the driver checks for tv outyness. If you look at the function, there are many points at which the init can fail. My asus A51e failed in the checking vbts section. through the miracle of slash slash based optimisation, I removed that check and now I have tvout working on the laptop with 3.2.x I will check if it works with 3.11+.
You need to get the kernel code from git and then apply a patch. remember: git checkout apply the fix copy a .config from your /boot dir to your src dir make -j #cpus +1 make -j #cpus +1 modules make -j #cpus +1 modules_install make -j #cpus +1 deb_pkg cd .. dpkg -i linux*.deb enjoy. I will cross post this on a few bugs to get some negative karma. :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/921636 Title: intel GM965 (X3100) no TV-Out (S-Video) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/921636/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
