This is for Dell server using radeon 7000m. Radeon driver has benn 
updated to support the special configuration of Dell server. However 
Dell reports TVDAC output RGB signal is a bit too high, need to 
adjust RGB voltage from ~800mv to ~760mv. See patch below.

Can Red Hat confirm if this patch is going to be in U4 ?

Comment 2 Mike A. Harris 2004-08-18 12:35:54 UTC
The patch looks very safe to me.  It will be committed to our CVS
soon, and slated for RHEL3 U4.  The similar patch for RHEL 2.1
will be committed at the same time for the next 2.1 update too.

I'll update the status of the report once it's commited to CVS
also.

Thanks for the patch Hui.


Comment 3 Mike A. Harris 2004-08-18 12:37:11 UTC
Hui)  Can you confirm also if this is commited to Xorg CVS for
the upcoming 6.8.0 release?  If it isn't, a bug should be filed
upstream there with a udiff that applies to CVS head, and CC
myself and Kevin on it, as the release is nearing quickly.

Thanks again!

Comment 4 Hui Yu 2004-08-18 13:00:16 UTC
It's in current xorg CVS head and will be in 6.8.0 release.
Thanks for merging this to your CVS.

Comment 5 Mike A. Harris 2004-08-21 13:49:15 UTC
No problem Hui!  Thanks again.

Comment 6 Mike A. Harris 2004-09-15 07:49:56 UTC
Patch updated in 4.3.0-69.EL build, which will be released as
erratum within the next few weeks.  Setting status to "ERRATA"
for pending erratum release.

Comment 7 Josh Bressers 2004-10-04 15:52:53 UTC
