Subject: [PATCH] Default to igfx_off
|
2010-07-29 23:46:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This option seems to causes way to many issues, it is
|
|
|
|
|
being investigated by Intel's chipset team for months now and
|
|
|
|
|
we still don't have any outcome.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The results so far are "black screen when starting X",
|
|
|
|
|
"system hangs when using GL", "system does not resume".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The patch adds an intel_iommu=igfx_on option, which makes it opt in,
|
|
|
|
|
rather than opt out.
