           Summary: radeon-randr12-v3 branch: not driving iBook panel
                    correctly
           Product: xorg
           Version: git
          Platform: PowerPC
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/Radeon
        AssignedTo: xorg-driver-ati at lists.x.org
        ReportedBy: toojays at toojays.net


Okay, so now i can start X with the radeon-randr12-v3, but it's not quite
usable. First problem is that it starts up running at 1280x800, with a very
flickery screen. But I'm pretty sure that this panel can only do 1024x768, and
nothing else.

I can change to 1024x768 using xrandr, but it's still heaps flickery, with
white horizontal lines which extend about 1/4 from the right of the panel
appearing to move down (or up?) the screen.

I don't know how to read this output, but I guess '+' means "preferred mode",
and '*' means current mode? I'm pretty sure that for this panel, 1024x768
should be the only one coming up. Also the if 60Hz is supposed to be the
refresh rate, Xorg.log reports 65Hz . . . maybe that's the problem? (although I
didn't think refresh rate applied to digital panels?)
