The goods:
Asus P5E-VM HDMI
Gentoo 2.6.24
Vizio VS42L
The good news first:
I plugged in my HDMI cable to the back of my motherboard, and into the
TV. I rebooted, watched the BIOS post, watched Grub load, and watched
the console scroll by while initializing Linux. Then X started,
probed my TV, and I got a 1920x1080P signal sent over HDMI to my TV!
Well done, worked like a champ, and looks beautiful.
The bad news:
I don't have any audio. I do remember someone mentioning this before,
but I also remember seeing threads since then regarding the issue and
am not sure what the current situation is.
What I would love to see:
The same thing, but instead of no audio, whatever audio is available.
I have a couple of the newer HD audio formats available to pass
through to my A/V receiver for testing once the Intel HDMI stuff
"works", but even regular mp3/ogg/$any audio doesn't seem to get
passed.
Any information on getting this working would be great. If I can help
troubleshoot the problem, I'd be happy to provide whatever information
necessary.
