External monitor's Gamma settings are changed if update
install to 1968 video driver. |
CUI |
Windows Vista* |
Mobile Intel® 4 Series Chipset Family |

Root
Cause: When we upgrade driver from 15.13
or 15.15 to 15.16 Gamma falls below the range of new gamma and hence the
corruption occurs. |

Bug
ID: 3355880 |
Resolution Is 800x600 When Hot Plugged DP-HDMI to Swatch |
NT - miniport |
Windows |
Arrandale |
|
Root
Cause: In the existing code while
searching for next equal or smaller mode in clone mode list the check was for
both equal/smaller X and Y. So if the preferred mode is 1280x720 the next
smaller mode 1024x768 was not passing equal or smaller check since 768 >
720. The fix done is to check for only X to get the next equal or smaller
mode. |
|||||
Bug

System shows BSoD D6 when doing driver verifier with
VBIOS1973+8.15.10.2044 |
Soft BIOS |
Windows* 7 |
Clarkdale |
|
Root
Cause: The root cause is that VBIOS
doesn’t enumerate some VBT fields for LVDS on DT, but driver would still look
for it. Removed the parsing of such fields for desktop platforms. |

SUT can not set max resolution (1440x900) on WXGA+ panel in
clone mode with a 19x10 native external monitor |
NT - miniport |
Windows |
Arrandale |
|
Root
Cause: This issue was observed in a
system with max LFP resolution 1440x900. In clone mode with a CRT having
native 19x10, we were not able to apply 1440x900. The cause was that 16x12
was getting selected as the target timing and since 12 > 10 (native Y)
IsSupportedVidPn was failing. |

no display) |
Video BIOS |
Windows* 7 |
Mobile Intel® 4 Series Chipset Family |
|
Root
Cause: DPLL registers were getting
locked and could not be programmed to new values during a display switch.
Cleaned the code such that write protection is enabled / disabled only once
in the entire sequence. Panel power off sequencing does not lock the
registers after switching the panel power off. Panel on sequence turns power
on for LFP and locks the already programmed DPLL registers. |

Samsung WXGA+ panel with X19 (2014) VGA driver can't boot
to OS. |
Soft BIOS |

Cause: Panel supports only 6bpc color

8bpc). |

Cause: When using AVS data load kernel,
the R and B channels were incorrectly swapped. So, introduced a new swap

ID: 3292322 |
Garbage appears if Suspend system on DC and Resume in AC
mode. |
Power Conservation |
Windows* 7 |
Mobile Intel® 4 Series Chipset Family |
|
Root
Cause: During S3/S4 resume, FBC hardware
state is not synchronized with driver's internal state, which causes FBC to
be enabled on unsupported configurations. This was causing flickers. Changed
the driver to take all restrictions and current config into consideration
before enabling the feature. |

Bug

A part of WMC menu is not displayed when move the mouse
cursor to right edge of desktop on 180 degree rotation. |
NT - miniport |
Windows* 7 |
Arrandale |
|
Root
Cause: During rotation, while we rotate
the cursor buffers, the rotated coordinates sometime go out of bounds of the
actual hardware cursor buffer coords. Since we always need to program at
least one active pixel of the buffer in order for the hardware to work
properly we were adjusting the coords accordingly on Windows Vista*[ where we
always knew the buffer size was 256x256]. But from Windows* 7 onwards this
assumption no longer holds good, so now we adjust the coords based on the
cursor buffer size dynamically. |
|||||
Bug
ID: 3292148 |
Green line is displayed at bottom of playback area when

DVD |
Windows* 7 |
Clarkdale |
|
Root
Cause: When HD Content is played, the
Surface Height is 1088, but the SrcRect Height is 1080. The Deinterlacing
algorithm reads outside the rectangle, so we see a green line and / or
garbage at the bottom of the playback window. |
