A.5 Priority Scheme for the Console
Problem
Solution
Used the
method
described in the
Appendix to
configure the
console
resolution, but
the card still
defaults to
something other
than the
resolution
specified. A priority scheme is used to determine the boot
console resolution. The Raptor 4000/4000e
firmware checks the various methods in the
order of priority discussed below. If it finds the
resolution from the current method, it uses it;
otherwise, it goes down the priority list to find
the resolution information. Finally, if there is no
resolution information, it uses the default
resolution. The resolution-setting methods are
enumerated in order of decreasing priority:
1. output-device method (Section A.2)
2. video-timing method (Section A.4)
3. video-mode method (Section A.3)
4. DDC2B/EDID (Section A.1.2)
5. Default resolution for the card
