2008-02-23PM: Introduce PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE callback stateRafael J. Wysocki
During the last step of hibernation in the "platform" mode (with the help of ACPI) we use the suspend code, including the devices' ->suspend() methods, to prepare the system for entering the ACPI S4 system sleep state. But at least for some devices the operations performed by the ->suspend() callback in that case must be different from its operations during regular suspend. For this reason, introduce the new PM event type PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE and pass it to the device drivers' ->suspend() methods during the last phase of hibernation, so that they can distinguish this case and handle it as appropriate. Modify the drivers that handle PM_EVENT_SUSPEND in a special way and need to handle PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE in the same way. These changes are necessary to fix a hibernation regression related to the i915 driver (ref. http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/22/488). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2008-02-06fb: nvidiafb: Try harder at initial mode setting.Paul Mundt
The current nvidiafb_check_var() simply bails out if the selected mode is out of range of the panel dimensions. A good question would be why the bogus mode is being selected in the first place -- the panel dimensions that are read back are certainly bogus, but alas, I have no idea where to even begin looking at the i2c/EDID/DDC mess: nvidiafb: Device ID: 10de0165 nvidiafb: CRTC0 analog not found nvidiafb: CRTC1 analog not found nvidiafb: EDID found from BUS1 nvidiafb: CRTC 0 is currently programmed for DFP nvidiafb: Using DFP on CRTC 0 nvidiafb: Panel size is 1280 x 1024 nvidiafb: Panel is TMDS nvidiafb: unable to setup MTRR nvidiafb: Flat panel dithering disabled nvidiafb: PCI nVidia NV16 framebuffer (64MB @ 0xC0000000) In my .config I presently have: CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID=y CONFIG_FB_DDC=y CONFIG_FB_NVIDIA_I2C=y I've not tried fiddling with these options, as I haven't the vaguest idea what I should be looking at. As a workaround, simply groveling for a new mode based on the probed dimensions seems to work ok. While it would be nice to debug this further and sort out why the panel information is bogus, I think it's still worth retrying the mode based on the panel information at hand as a last-ditch effort, rather than simply bailing out completely.

2007-10-16nvidiafb: Add boot option to reverse i2c port assignmentAntonino A. Daplas
There are a few nvidia hardware where the i2c port assignments are reversed, i.e., the 1st i2c port is assigned to the secondary display and the 2nd i2c port to the primary display. In most cases, if only 1 display is attached, or if only 1 flatpanel and 1 analog display is attached, the port reversal is of no consequence. However if 2 flatpanels are attached, it can cause display problems. There is no sane way of determining if the hardware reversed the i2c port assignment, so the simplest fix is to add a boot/module option, "reverse_i2c to explicitly reverse the i2c port. This also restores i2c ordering back to the pre-2.6.22 state.

2006-07-31[PATCH] rivafb/nvidiafb: race between register_framebuffer and *_bl_initGuido Guenther
Since we now use the generic backlight infrastructure, I think we need to call rivafb_bl_init before calling register_framebuffer since otherwise rivafb_bl_init might race with the framebuffer layer already opening the device and setting up the video mode. In this case we might end up with a not yet fully intialized backlight (info->bl_dev still NULL) when calling riva_bl_set_power via rivafb_set_par/rivafb_load_video_mode and the kernel dies without any further notice during boot. This fixes booting current git on a PB 6,1. In this case radeonfb/atyfb would be affected too - I can fix that too but don't have any hardware to test this on. Cc: "Antonino A.

2005-11-07[PATCH] fbcon/fbdev: Move softcursor out of fbdev to fbconAntonino A. Daplas
According to Jon Smirl, filling in the field fb_cursor with soft_cursor for drivers that do not support hardware cursors is redundant. The soft_cursor function is usable by all drivers because it is just a wrapper around fb_imageblit. And because soft_cursor is an fbcon-specific hook, the file is moved to the console directory. Thus, drivers that do not support hardware cursors can leave the fb_cursor field blank. For drivers that do, they can fill up this field with their own version. The end result is a smaller code size. And if the framebuffer console is not loaded, module/kernel size is also reduced because the soft_cursor module will also not be loaded.

2005-11-07[PATCH] nvidiafb: Add flat panel dither supportBenjamin Herrenschmidt
nvidiafb didn't fully hook-up the code it borrowed from X for doing flat panel dithering (this is useful for 6 bits panels). This adds a driver option to force it, and by default "reads" the current value from the chip to get the firmware setting. It significantly improves the quality of images on the iMac G5 I have here (though the X driver doesn't yet "read" the current value and defaults to 0, so you have to add Option "FBDither" "true" to your X config file to get that, I'll try to fix X.org to "read" the default unless specified asap).

This adds support for the Nvidia Geforce 7800 series of cards to the nvidiafb framebuffer driver. All it does is add the PCI device id for the 7800, 7800 GTX, 7800 GO, and 7800 GTX GO cards to the module device table for the nvidiafb.ko driver, so that nvidiafb.ko will actually work on these cards. I also added the relevant PCI device ids to linux/pci_ids.h I tested it on my 7800 GTX here and it works like a charm. I now can get framebuffer support on this card! Woo hoo!! Nothing like 200x75 text mode to make your eyes BLEED. ;) Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-09-20[PATCH] nvidiafb: Fix absence of cursor in nvidiafbAntonino A. Daplas
A recent change in nvidiafb caused nvidiafb_cursor to always return -ENXIO instead of using the soft_cursor. This will happen if the parameter "hwcur" is not set, which happens to be the default. Signed-off-by: Antonino Daplas <adaplas@pol.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-09-09[PATCH] nvidiafb: Use CVT to get mode for digital displaysAntonino A. Daplas
If no EDID block is probed, if the display is digital and if no mode option is specified by the user, get the timings by CVT instead of using the global mode database.
