[Unichrome-devel] Acer Aspire 1362 messup

[Bernhard R. <be...@ar...>]

Hi,
We just received an Acer Aspire 1362 for testing.
Looks like they messed up the graphics support quite a bit.

Unlike the Acer Aspire 136x entry already present in the current CVS driver, 
the new Aspire 136x-es use PCI ID 1106:3108 [Same thing the current driver 
identifies as a Giga-byte GA-K8VM800M, which doesn't have LCD support].

The expected happens - X starts, all log output is ok, but the display isn't 
active.

The obvious workaround

Doesn't help for some reason -- it properly detects the device as "new Acer 
Aspire 136x", but the display remains blank.

Any ideas?
