the following patch was just integrated into master: commit c7f2ab742b2589281efa852309e29c8da5270fbe Author: Duncan Laurie dlaurie@chromium.org Date: Tue May 28 07:49:09 2013 -0700
haswell: Add magic to turn on grahpics in normal mode
The haswell i915 kernel driver apparently expects the VBIOS to set a few specific registers. This sequence is enough to make the driver happy without executing the VBIOS.
This also makes graphics work after suspend/resume.
