Most rv770 boards I've seen have the same mclk for all performance levels. You might try adjusting the value of CG_DISPLAY_GAP_CNTL in rv770_program_display_gap(). Maybe try R600_PM_DISPLAY_GAP_VBLANK_OR_WM or R600_PM_DISPLAY_GAP_WATERMARK rather than R600_PM_DISPLAY_GAP_VBLANK for DISP1_GAP_MCHG, but I don't think it will make a difference.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
