Description Pablo Iranzo Gómez 2011-04-07 06:09:18 UTC
Description of problem:
When connected to docking station, using external display, first output on screen is random colors that keep flickering until I open the laptop lid and close it

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.14.0-4.fc15.x86_64

How reproducible:
Boot your fedora using external monitor when the gdm login is supposed to appear, the screen just flickers.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot fedora 15 on your X201 laptop docked with external monitor
2. Let it boot
3. When the boot process is finished and gdm is supposed to appear, just random colors appear
  
Actual results:
Random colors instead of normal screen, need to open and close lid to refresh with usable screen


Expected results:
usable screen from the beggining

Thanks for the bug report.  We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue.

Please add drm.debug=0x04 to the kernel command line, restart computer, and attach

* your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf, if available),
* X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log)
* output of the dmesg command, and
* system log (/var/log/messages)

to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link above.

We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information.

Thanks in advance.

Matej,

cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-system-setup-keyboard.conf 
# This file is autogenerated by system-setup-keyboard. Any 
# modifications will be lost.

Section "InputClass"
	Identifier	"system-setup-keyboard"
	MatchIsKeyboard	"on"
	Option		"XkbModel"	"pc105"
	Option		"XkbLayout"	"es"
#	Option		"XkbVariant"	"(null)"
	Option		"XkbOptions"	"terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,"
EndSection


(There's no xorg.conf)

I've already added the kernel debug line and will restart later and upload the remaining files during today

Thanks!
Pablo

Comment 8 Pablo Iranzo Gómez 2011-05-16 10:37:57 UTC
The problem is more serious, I've tried today to setup dualscreen setup with internal and external, and both screens work bad:

- External: flickering like in video
- Internal: displaced and can't see mouse moving in the screen

Closing and opening the lid then closing it again makes output usable on external display.

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1600 x 1200, maximum 8192 x 8192
LVDS1 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
   1280x800       60.0 +   50.0  
   1024x768       60.0  
   800x600        60.3     56.2  
   640x480        59.9  
VGA1 connected 1600x1200+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 367mm x 275mm

This applies to a running session, not just on GDM, so seems more related with x11 driver

Comment 10 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 14:40:26 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
