Adrien Destugues adc0f76e64 More SandyBridge fixes and cleanups
Modesetting
===========

My previous hack was setting the transcoder registers, instead of the
display ones. Do that the way it is designed in the driver instead:

- If there is a transcoder, set its registers, but do not set the
display timings. The display will remain set at its native (and only)
resolution, and panel fitting will adjust the output of the transcoder
to match.
- If there is no transcoder, set the display registers directly to the
native resolution, as it was done on previous generation devices.
- fPipeOffset hacks no longer needed

DPMS
====

It seems the panel control register is not readable on PCH? Anyway, the
code would loop forever waiting for the bit to become unset when turning
the display off. Waiting seems to not be needed, so just remove it as
well as the "unlock" bit, which does not work for me and results in a
black screen.

Remaining hacks
===============

I still need to force HEAD_MODE_A_ANALOG to get output on pipe B (LVDS
display) working. I suspect something is common to the two pipes or not
allocated to the right one.

This version will have less side effects on other generations and help
with getting things to work on SandyBridge and possibly later devices.
Please test and report.

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

  • Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
  • Clean, clear, concise code.
  • Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.

Contributing

Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!

Contributing code

If you're submitting a patch to us, please make sure you're following the patch submitting guidelines.

If you're having trouble finding something in the source tree, you can use one of our OpenGrok servers:

Contributing documentation

The main piece of documentation that still needs work are the API docs (found in the tree at docs/user). Just find an undocumented class, write documentation for it, and submit a patch.
