Comment (by pulkomandy):
If I try to unlock the ports on my SandyBridge laptop, I only get a black
screen. Maybe it is better for me to not touch them at all and hope the
BIOS did set things the way we need.
In both this and the timings, there was not this much research from my
side: I just made things happen in the same order they were before your
changes, so as to get my native video mode working again.
I think we can reasonably expect the BIOS to setup LVDS properly. We may
still need to adjust some display base address or similar.
For the timings, relying on the BIOS is not the safest way, especially on
machines where it doesn't use the native mode.
I can try to further reduce my changes but I can only test on the hardware
I own, which makes it a bit difficult for me to see if I fix your problem.
