Framebuffer display problem

This question is answered

Hi,

I use an Angstrom kernel 2.6.32 build with openembedded on a DM6446 processor.

When I write an RGB565 bitmap image to the framebuffer (OSD0 layer) than the displayed

image is somehow distorted. You can see this especially in the text. It looks like if there is some

uncorrect offset when the driver displayes the second frame of the image.

 

I use the following bootparameters to initialize the framebuffer driver:

davincifb:vid0=0,2500K:vid1=720x576x16,2500K:osd0=720x576x16,2025K:osd1=720x576

 

The displaying of images works perfectly with an old Montavista kernel. I have looked for

specific driver options but didn't find nothing which did really help.  Any suggestions where I

could look or what could be wrong?

 

Thanks

Philip Oberstaller

    The issue was caused by the hardware bug 1.3.8 in the TMS320DM6446 of revision 1.1. The bug fix

    was not merged in the current driver of the Angstrom kernel 2.6.32.
