Hi Guys,

I wrote up about the LVDS quirking here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Quirks#Ignore%20LVDS%20Output%20Quirk

To answer the question about the structure { PCI_CHIP_I965_GM, 0x1509, 0x2f15, quirk_ignore_lvds }, the 2nd and 3rd fields are the subsystem vendor PCI ID's. If you run `lspci -vvnn | grep -A1 "VGA compat"` it prints the chip PCI ID and the subsystem vendor PCI ID. You can also obtain it from the Xorg.0.log in the PCI scan section, but the lspci approach is probably simpler for most people. :-)

@Jumble, looks like the patch for your system has already gone upstream. And thanks for working with unggnu on this - seeing your bug actually helped me sort out the same issue on a different machine. :-) I will work on getting a Hardy SRU in for it, in due course.

@Caysho, you've provided enough info and I'm adding this quirk for you too:

    /* Asus Eee PC B202 (See LP: #233787) */
    { PCI_CHIP_I945_GME, 0x1043, 0x1252, quirk_ignore_lvds },

If anyone else has similar symptoms, please file as new bugs so it's easier for us to track patches and such. Reference the above X Quirks page and follow the directions on it.
