Just to not leave loose ends, for some reason I needed to instruct the
person I'm helping with also add i915.modeset=1 to the kernel
bootline. Meanwhile I also switched to drm-intel-next, which, if I
understood correctly, has a bit different set of fixes than
edp-fixes-2. I'll have him test also the edp-fixes-2 branch at some
point, since that would be closer to a released kernel than the
current drm-intel-next. Of course, having the proper set of patches in
2.6.37.x would be nice as well.
