[coreboot] ARM Veyron Speedy - Replacing 11.6 inch display for 15 inch

[Julius Werner]

> So looking at the specs for the display that comes with the ASUS
Chromebook C201 I can see the following PIN structure [1] is required on
the display end.

I'm confused... there's 30 pins there, but there should only be 20 on the
connector. I guess you got this from the panel datasheet directly? If you
bought your panel together with the cable, you still don't know how those
map to what's on the connector. Looks like they're dropping 10 of them and
rearranging the rest, because this looks nothing like the schematics I
have. (For reference it starts with two VCC_LED, two VCC33_LCD, then
HOTPLUG and two backlight-related pins.)

> Although even if they did have the lane exposes it looks like your
helpful advice on the coreboot function would be a bit out of my depth.

It's pretty simple... try this patch (untested) which should implement what
I suggested. I think there's a decent chance this might make your other
panel work as well. (Note that this is *only* for the exact panel you
originally posted log output for. Also: I think this should work, but
there's a slim chance wrong pixel clocks may damage a panel, no warranty,
yada yada.)

I'm not sure if the coreboot source is prepared for that, though. There

Sorry, I gotta admit I'm not a display guy at all. We mostly just took what
they gave us. The reference manuals were all shared with us under NDA...
you could try asking them directly, but I doubt you'll have much luck. The
document you're looking for is called "Rockchip EDP TX IP Interface". It
has lots of nice explanations including about M and N, but I don't really
understand them without background.

The other lanes aren't routed on the board. This isn't going to help.
