I can boot into either of two video modes using the appropriate kms_force_mode setting in uEnv.txt. When I run a modified version of modetest (built from git://anongit.freedesktop.org/mesa/drm) that sets the opposite mode from the one defined in uEnv.txt and then calls SDL_Init and SDL_GetVideoInfo, the later always finds the same mode as was set in uEnv.txt. Then a call to SDL_SetVideoMode (also with the opposite of the uEnv.txt mode) always fails, just as it does if I hadn't attempted to change the mode via libdrm.</div> <div> </div> <div>For example, when this line is in uEnv.txt:</div> <div>kms_force_mode=video=HDMI-A-1:912x1140M@60</div> <div> </div> <div>and in the modified modetest, with count == 1, I call:</div> <div> parse_connector(&pipe_args[count], "5:1280x800") … set_mode(&dev, pipe_args, count) It then reports: setting mode 1280x800-60Hz@XR24 on connectors 5, crtc 3 But SDL_GetVideoInfo still reports the mode as 912x1140, and on attempting to use SDL_SetVideoMode to set it to 1280x800, it fails with the error message: </div> <div> No video mode large enough for 1280x800 FYI, the output of the (unmodified) modetest when using this same uEnv.txt file is shown below. </div> <div>Richard</div> <div> </div> <div> trying to open device 'i915'...failed trying to open device 'radeon'...failed trying to open device 'nouveau'...failed trying to open device 'vmwgfx'...failed trying to open device 'omapdrm'...failed trying to open device 'exynos'...failed trying to open device 'tilcdc'...done Encoders: id crtc type possible crtcs possible clones 4 3 TMDS 0x00000001 0x00000000 Connectors: id encoder status name size (mm) modes encoders 5 4 connected HDMI-A-1 520x320 4 4 modes: name refresh (Hz) hdisp hss hse htot vdisp vss vse vtot) 1280x800 60 1280 1352 1480 1680 800 810 816 831 flags: phsync, pvsync; type: preferred, driver 912x1140 60 912 952 1016 1192 1140 1150 1156 1170 flags: phsync, pvsync; type: driver 752x470 70 752 776 856 960 470 471 474 490 flags: nhsync, pvsync; type: 720x450 60 720 736 808 896 450 451 454 466 flags: nhsync, pvsync; type: props: 1 EDID: flags: immutable blob blobs: value: 00ffffffffffff001190004501000000 0d170103803420a002ee95a3544c9926 0f505400000001000100010001000100 0100010001009e20009051201f304880 a60006442100001ea820901831741e40 2840a60006442100001e000000fc004c 437220343530300a20202020000000fa 001d003b003f0a2020010001000a00db 2 DPMS: flags: enum enums: On=0 Standby=1 Suspend=2 Off=3 value: 1 CRTCs: id fb pos size 3 10 (0,0) (912x1140) 912x1140 60 912 952 1016 1192 1140 1150 1156 1170 flags: phsync, pvsync; type: driver props: Planes: id crtc fb CRTC x,y x,y gamma size possible crtcs Frame buffers: id size pitch </div> <div> </div> </body> </html>
