I am not able to use `modprobe i915` after disabling i915 using module_blacklist=i915 (<a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Kernel_module#Using_kernel_command_line">https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Kernel_module#Using_kernel_command_line</a>) as it seems that there is a path in the kernel module loading function itself that blocks anything in the module_blacklist even after the boot process, so modprobe returns an error. Using modprobe blacklist + initramfs/mkinitcpio even including i915's dependencies doesn't work at all. Anyway I did still manage to get pinctrl output for the following: * i915 disabled, with grub GFX_PAYLOAD=800x1280 * normal boot (unmodified kernel and boot params) without X11 * normal boot within X11 * normal boot within X11 after `xrandr --output DSI-1 --off`, which turns off the backlight of the screen perhaps among other things All are done with an external monitor connected through USB-C (DP alternate mode I think) -> hub -> HDMI. I have to note that when i915 is disabled only the laptop's screen has output (that's why I have to use GFX_PAYLOAD because otherwise the output is garbage). Also, for normal boot the console is shown on the external monitor by default (thankfully).</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> <li>You are on the CC list for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
