hi,

Seeking some help.

Managed a text-only install with:

9front-5217.0d720aa995cf.iso.bz2

Now I am wondering how to get my SandyBridge Intel HD 2000 Graphics
card to display anything but black

I tried adding the PCI did to /lib/vgadb and the corresponding case
statement in vga/igfx.c but no dice, just displays a black screen.

I see the comment in igfx.c that says the SNB work is unfinished.

in plan9.ini using:

monitor=vesa
vgasize=1280x1024x32

the output from aux/vga -m vesa -p is very similar to the thinkpad
x230 found here:

http://plan9.stanleylieber.com/hardware/thinkpad/x230/2306-cto/sysinfo

Copying some output by hand from pci -v
...
0.2.0:  vid  03.00.00 8086/0102  11  0:e0c00004 4194304 2:d000000c
268435456 4:00003001 64
    Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated
Graphics Controller
...

I've got the output of aux/vga -V  -m vesa -l 1280x1024x32 as well but
I'll have to get the network up on the box first.

Does anyone know of a way to get this card functioning?
And where would you find documentation on the card to write this or
similar drivers? I looked at intel.com and found nothing substantial.
surprised?



Thanks for any help,
James
