dmesg

Description of problem: I upgraded to 3.8.3-201.fc18 kernel to test it, and it started booting fine, resolution seemed ok/native, but just little before startig X, or when X was starting I'm not really sure it changes the resoltuion to 1024x768 instead of 1280x720 which is native display resolution. This is on laptop with GM45 graphics.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-3.8.3-201.fc18.x86_64

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install kernel-3.8.3-201.fc18.x86_64
2. reboot
3.
  
Actual results:
wrong screen resolution

Expected results:
using native screen resolution

Sorry I was wrong about native display resolution it is 1280x800 not, 1280x720 which is detected right in xrandr output for LVDS1

    drm/i915: reorder setup sequence to have irqs for output setup

--- Additional comment from Anthony Messina on 2013-03-16 10:21:42 EDT ---

I confirm this same issue on a Thinkpad X200s.

--- Additional comment from  on 2013-03-17 05:24:14 EDT ---

I have the same problem after updating to 3.8.3-201.fc18.

Instead of defaulting to the native display resolution of 1280x800 it now goes to 1024x768. This is on an HP laptop with Intel Chipset Series 4 Integrated Graphics.

I am using a work around for this problem for now by adding the following line to /etc/gdm/Init/Default
xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1280x800

Same thing here. After installing and booting into kernel-3.8.3-201.fc18.x86_64 my 1280x800 resolution went to 1024x768 and there was no option like 1280x800 to chose from the resolutions menu in Gnome settings. There was only 1024x768 and 800x600, so everything 4:3. Booting back to 3.8.2 fixed it.

the same on Dell Vostro 1015 1024x768 instate of 1366x768 -> kernel-3.8.3-206.fc18.i686

--- Additional comment from Kamil Páral on 2013-03-17 16:18:06 EDT ---

The same problem here on Thinkpad T500. xrandr says I have LVDS1 with 1680x1050 resolution (that is correct, that is my notebook display) and VGA1 with 1024x768 connected (that is incorrect, I don't have any external display connected). GNOME clones the displays, so I get 1024x768 resolution. Didn't happen with kernel-3.8.2-206.fc18.x86_64.

Two more people (bitlord and amessina) confirmed the problem here:

same for me on lenovo T400
Display starts in cloning mode, VGA1 is detected as connected, which is not true. That is probably the cause of problem. Primary display is on LVDS1 with 1024x768; native resolution is 1440x900.

kernel-3.8.2-206.fc18.x86_64

sorry for bad kernel specified in comment above, it's same as for the others
kernel-3.8.3-201.fc18.x86_64

--- Additional comment from Jim Haynes on 2013-03-17 21:04:19 EDT ---

Same problem for me on a Dell i1545 laptop
I looked in system tools->system settings->display and it says it is a
mirrored display.

--- Additional comment from Steven Michael Williams on 2013-03-18 00:19:35 EDT ---

I have the same issue using a Lenovo G530. Tried to redetect the display and it won't go any higher than 1024x768. Previous kernel works fine.

--- Additional comment from Roman Kagan on 2013-03-18 07:02:45 EDT ---

Me too on Lenovo ThinkPad T500.

The relevant log part (with drm.debug=255)


3.8.3-201.fc18:

[    2.539349] [drm:intel_crt_detect], CRT detected via hotplug


3.8.2-206.fc18:

[    2.703031] [drm:intel_crt_detect], CRT not detected via hotplug


In both cases nothing is connected to the VGA output.

My suspect is

    drm/i915: reorder setup sequence to have irqs for output setup
    
    commit 52d7ecedac3f96fb562cb482c139015372728638 upstream.
    
    Otherwise the new&shiny irq-driven gmbus and dp aux code won't work that
    well. Noticed since the dp aux code doesn't have an automatic fallback
    with a timeout (since the hw provides for that already).
    
    v2: Simple move drm_irq_install before intel_modeset_gem_init, as
    suggested by Ben Widawsky.
    
    v3: Now that interrupts are enabled before all connectors are fully
    set up, we might fall over serving a HPD interrupt while things are
    still being set up. Instead of jumping through massive hoops and
    complicating the code with a separate hpd irq enable step, simply
    block out the hotplug work item from doing anything until things are
    in place.
    
    v4: Actually, we can enable hotplug processing only after the fbdev is
    fully set up, since we call down into the fbdev from the hotplug work
    functions. So stick the hpd enabling right next to the poll helper
    initialization.
    
    v5: We need to enable irqs before intel_modeset_init, since that
    function sets up the outputs.
    
    v6: Fixup cleanup sequence, too.

Same here on my T500.
The X-Server actually crashes with the new kernel if I don't add radeon.modeset=0 to kernel options. But if I add it I get a wrong resolution and a non existing VGA monitor. And as a bonus vgaswitcheroo isn't working any more so I have a boiling notebook.
Reverting to 3.8.2 solves the issus for now. I really hope for a quick fix.

backporting 20afbda209d from linus tree has been suggested, maybe someone can do that, I'm zzzz.

Same problem here with kernel-3.8.3-201.fc18:

[    0.637622] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: Intel GM45 Chipset

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)

kdm (and razor-qt) starts in 1024x768 while the correct screen resolution would be 1280x800. The old kernel-3.8.2-206 works fine.

I just installed kernel-3.8.3-203.fc18.x86_64 and the problem is gone, thanks for the quick fix.
