- On the T400 and T500 (maybe others), some of the higher resolution panels
- (e.g. 1440x900, 1680x1050, 1920x1200) fail in libreboot.

- <h1>The problem</h1>
- <p>
- In some cases, backlight turns on during boot, sometimes not. In all cases,
- no display is shown in GRUB, nor in GNU/Linux.
- </p>
- <h1>
- Current workaround:
- </h1>
- <p>
- Libreboot (git, and releases after 20150518) now automatically detect whether
- to use single or dual link LVDS configuration. If you're using an older version,
- use the instructions below. In practise, this means that you'll get a visual
- display when booting GNU/Linux, but not in GRUB (payload).
- </p>
-
- <p>
- The i915 module in the Linux kernel also provides an option to set the LVDS link configuration.
- i915.lvds_channel_mode:Specify LVDS channel mode (0=probe BIOS [default], 1=single-channel, 2=dual-channel) (int)
- - from /sbin/modinfo i915 - use <b>i915.lvds_channel_mode=2</b> as a kernel option in grub.cfg.

- <p>
- These panels all work in the original firmware, so the idea is to see what differences there are in how coreboot handles them.
