VGA patch by Bruno Ducrot -- no success yet
Hi Bruno,
thanks for your patch [*] to implement the ACPI VGA display extensions, as promised, I gave it a shot on my machine with Linux kernel 2.6.2 (swsusp2, ACPI20040116, ACPI/APIC fix).
The patch applied cleanly and the kernel compiled fine.
During boot, things look not too bad
ACPI: AC Adapter [AC0] (on-line)
ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT0] (battery present)
ACPI: Power Button (FF) [PWRF]
ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB]
ACPI: Lid Switch [LID]
ACPI: Fan [FN00] (off)
ACPI: Video Device [VGA] (multi-head: yes rom: no post: no)
ACPI: Processor [CPU1] (supports C1 C2 C3, 8 throttling states)
ACPI: Thermal Zone [THRM] (53 C)
Asus Laptop ACPI Extras version 0.27
M2N model detected, supported
Doing a tree /proc/acpi/video/ shows
/proc/acpi/video/
`-- VGA
|-- CRTD
| |-- EDID
| |-- brightness
| |-- info
| `-- state
|-- LCDD
| |-- EDID
| |-- brightness
| |-- info
| `-- state
|-- POST
|-- POST_info
|-- ROM
`-- info(is it normal that CRT and LCD have another "D" at the end?)
Doing a cat on the different nodes gives for LCD:
cat ./LCDD/EDID
<not supported>
cat ./LCDD/brightness
<not supported>
cat ./LCDD/state
state: 0x1f query: 0x01
cat ./LCDD/info
device_id: 0x0400 type: UNKNOWN known by bios: yes
And for CRT:
cat ./CRTD/EDID
<not supported>
cat ./CRTD/brightness
<not supported>
cat ./CRTD/state
state: 0x1d query: 0x00
cat ./CRTD/info
device_id: 0x0100 type: CRT known by bios: yes
And finally POST:
cat ./POST
<not supported>
cat ./POST_info
<not supported>
cat ./ROM
<TODO>
cat ./info
Switching heads: yes Video ROM: no Device to be POSTed on boot: no
Suspend to RAM seemed to work fine, however, there was the usual trouble upon powering back up:

But then I'm seeing new stuff which may be related to the new driver as that is the only thing that changed:

Hi Bruno,
thanks for your patch [*] to implement the ACPI VGA display extensions, as promised, I gave it a shot on my machine with Linux kernel 2.6.2 (swsusp2, ACPI20040116, ACPI/APIC fix).
The patch applied cleanly and the kernel compiled fine.
During boot, things look not too bad
ACPI: AC Adapter [AC0] (on-line)
ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT0] (battery present)
ACPI: Power Button (FF) [PWRF]
ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB]
ACPI: Lid Switch [LID]
ACPI: Fan [FN00] (off)
ACPI: Video Device [VGA] (multi-head: yes rom: no post: no)
ACPI: Processor [CPU1] (supports C1 C2 C3, 8 throttling states)
ACPI: Thermal Zone [THRM] (53 C)

(is it normal that CRT and LCD have another "D" at the end?)
Yes, it's the same as for the device in the ACPI namespace, the same apply for the VGA also.
Quoted 4 lines
Doing a cat on the different nodes gives for LCD:
cat ./LCDD/EDID

Ok, that one is very not common.

For an LCD device, that not very fun unfortunately :(

Well, that need to be done as said, even though in fact that is really uncommon though.

Is the system more stable without preempt, btw?

I'm not sure how these relate to each other, but we're talking ASUS M2N here, which uses the acpi4asus code, in which
/proc/acpi/asus/
|-- brn |-- disp |-- info |-- lcd
`-- mled
exist. And therefore
/proc/acpi/asus/brn
normally regulates background display brightness for the LCD, while lcd toggles the backlight on/off. Unfortunately both have no effect on the dead screen after S3.
Don't know whether/how this interacts with your code.

I'll try... although it shouldn't make a difference, or should it?

Yeah, that should get rid of that one.
But since it probably won't help bringing the display back to life I won't recompile for that fix, I guess.

P.S. Oh yeah, machine is ASUS M2N, Intel 855GM, more info:

Thanks for tackling that issue!
When you have another version you think might help with the dead screen issue or need more input, please let me know. I don't really have a lot of time but compiling a kernel by the side is usually possible. :)

Well, then I really need to make one marked 'medium' of the TODO list which read:
- implement an interface so that external modules can be made, like the asus, toshiba specifics.
At least for the asus case.

Well, maybe the acpi4asus people will feel inspired to help from the other side of the code -- the current problem affects all ASUS M2N and M3N, it seems.
Since they are quite popular models, it would be in many people's interest to bring this together soon.
Which makes me wonder.
There is someone else I would expect to have some interest in seeing support of the Intel 855GM chipset: Intel.
I know that a good part of the ACPI part was contributed by people working at Intel, but I don't know whether this is secret, tolerated or official. As I would gather it is probably not secret for you would have used different email addresses then, is on of you on the problem?
I am not sure we actually know _why_ that particular chipset fails to bring the display back to life after S3.
Configuring it seems to be insufficient, un/reloading the driver doesn't work -- the DRI/DRM driver doesn't actually *load*, the command to load it just sits there forever. So there must be more to be done? Maybe some secret wakeup signal?
There were people at Intel writing the proprietary graphics driver for Linux, they should know at least part of the solution, if not all.
Could you see who did that driver and get in touch with them internally to see whether they have an idea among colleagues?
I'm fairly sure that if people had an idea what the problem really is, it would be solved in the forseeable future.
