I could be completely wrong, but I gather libgfxinit (as opposed to "VGA Option ROMS") is disabling (full) activation of the dGPU. If I wanted to go that latter not-recommended route, how should display mode be set up?
Any thoughts?
---------------------------------------- Bug #549: coreboot 24.05: SeaBIOS Windows 10/11 BSOD "ACPI BIOS ERROR" (Thinkpad W530) https://ticket.coreboot.org/issues/549#change-1897
* Author: Simon Dominic * Status: New * Priority: Normal * Category: board support * Target version: master * Start date: 2024-07-31 * Affected versions: master * Affected hardware: Lenovo ThinkPad W530 * Affected OS: Windows 10/11 ---------------------------------------- When using the latest coreboot (i.e. using command `git clone https://review.coreboot.org/coreboot%60), which is currently 24.05, to build a rom for Thinkpad W530, I get BSOD with "ACPI BIOS ERROR" when trying to boot into Windows 10 or 11 from SeaBIOS. Even just booting from a Windows install usb will show this error.
This is even with incorporating the vga bios files (so i can external displays to work) - see my defconfig.
Did consider using EDK2 apparently Windows support is pretty solid, but could never make a successful build - not that `make` command had errors, but once flashing, would just having white underscore and have to recover with external flashing. A separate issue to write about in and of itself, but I prefer SeaBIOS so I'll be sticking with that.
I am quite new to coreboot - using for only about 2-3 months now. Let me know if there is further information I should provide.
