Hi,
I'm using an Intel i852GM chipset and have a 16:10 aspect ratio LCD.
I'd like to be able to configure the PANEL_FITTING atom introduced in 2.3.
However, looking through the code, I see that the PANEL_FITTING atom is
disabled for all of the i8xx chips. For these chips all I can do is
accept the default setting of PANEL_FITTING = full.
The code for letterboxing/pillar-boxing seems to be really simple. (Even
for i8xx chips, it seems like all we have to do is set PFIT_CONTROL to the
appropriate mode, then find the drawing offset and store it in
PFIT_PGM_RATIOS).
Is the reason we can't implement the PANEL_FITTING atom for i8xx because
the i8xx chips don't have the PFIT_CONTROL and PFIT_PGM_RATIOS registers?
(As a side note: this doesn't seem to be the case since all of the PFIT_*
registers are declared in i810_regs.h. As another side note, when I dump
the chip's registers I see PFIT_CONTROL and PFIT_PGM_RATIOS in the dump.)
I found the register documentation at http://intellinuxgraphics.org for
965+ chips; is there a similar place to find register documentation for
older chips or has intel not released that data?
Thanks,
Joe Luquette
