Description

Haiku boots in VESA-Mode with a resolution of 1024x768. It seems like my AMD Radeon HD 6320 isn't recognized any more. Build: hrevr1alpha4-44621. Worked fine with hrev44459.

I dropped many of the HD 6xxx laptop chipsets because a majority of them didn't work at this time(including the one in my laptop)... Strange that yours did work.

The goal of disabling mobile 6xxx chipsets in favor of stability vs new users getting stuck with just a "black screen" when they boot.

Do you have any of the syslogs from hrev44459? Do you know if your 6320 has a NUTMEG or TRAVIS encoder? (the syslogs for radeon_hd should of said)

Anyway, this regression was on purpose.

Made a new syslog with hrev44459 and attached it. I hope it is useful...

It seems that only the sumo and sumo2 chipsets have the DP bridge-only configuration. Palm *can* have DP bridges, but it isn't a requirement (up to the vendor)... thus users have a shot at them working.

If your Radeon HD palm gpu has a DP-bridge and doesn't work:

  • boot to safe video mode
  • remove radeon_hd from /boot/system/add-ons/kernel/drivers/bin/
  • reboot

Sorry, did you apply a change? Tested it with the latest nightly(hrevr1alpha4-44630), but it still boots in VESA-Mode...

patch: 01

reset "patch" flag that got turned off by accident

comment:9 by kallisti5, 12 years ago

patch: 10

picked for R1A4 in hrevr1alpha4-44640

  • Sumo are the only APU's with DP-only bridges
  • While Palm *may* have DP bridges, it's not a requirement. (up to the vendor)
  • Palm chipsets with DP bridges will need to boot vesa and remove radeon_hd for now.
