[oi-dev] Screen distorted with new i915 driver

[Мартин Бохниг]

Hallo Alexander Jung,


I forgot to mention: Levovo is know for messing around with generic pciids and for replacing them with its own vendor ids (or at least for creating long combined pciids and sub-ids consisting of the real generic pciids plus what they invented themselves).
This can lead to drivers externally not attching in the first place and/or (even if) internally not seeing "their" devices. 
I'm certainly not the only one who can sing a song about Lenovo's pciids policy ... (while their hardware is actually really great otherwise)

As for your statement:

> I am also very interestet in a solution for the nvidia card. Then you should perhaps tell us more about which card you are intenting to use  ;)
Then we can decide if there is NVidia's closed binary -only drm driver for you and or if you should use the closed src or open src Xorg 2D ddx for the userspace side.

As an additional step it would be helpful to know if Solaris 11.3 works for you or not.
Plus all the mentioned logs from there.

Add to that prtconf -v (the long output) from Hipster and Solaris11.3.
However - from (almost)no info (almost)no healp can be generated.

The W530 has an intel and nvidia graphicscard, but because the nvidiadriver don't work at all i switched to intel in bios.

lspci shows
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09)

I am also very interestet in a solution for the nvidia card.


Best regards,

Alex
