Re: [Libreboot] Video problem booting X200

[Harry McKee]

I'm using the 20150518 version, ROM image x200_8mb_usqwerty_vesafb.rom

I updated the rom file using the file generated from ich9gen, ich9fdgbe_8m.bin, using the MAC address for each machine.

can you give the version of libreboot that you used, and maybe the exact rom file too?

I have two X200 laptops with 8mb BIOS chips. I installed Libreboot
with a Beaglebone Black and using the Linux command line. Both have
had their Wifi cards and hard drives swapped out.

The problem is when booting the video is VERY flaky, eg lines, spots,
random noise and black screens. Sometimes they boot to a usable state
but other times they don't. I have searched the mailing list and the
net but haven't found anything that indicates what the problem might
be.

Has anyone else experienced this or know what I might look at next?
