Hi, I think that is the problem that many, including me, are experiencing. Interestingly, most people I saw with this problem have a xxxxMQ CPU like your i7-4910MQ. My personal "feeling" is, that there is something wrong that messes up the detection of the output connectors. Unfortunately, I cannot help in further pinpointing this issue. I tried to dig into the code on my own in the end of last year but that was merely trial and error with the emphasis on the latter. ;) Anyway, it is great to see that people keep on working on this and there are efforts for uniting efforts. :) Cheers, Ruediger On 01/14/2016 21:13, Stefan Wendler wrote: > Today I tested Revision 14cfa29 (find dmesg attached) and the screen was > blank again.
