Introduction Intel EMGD Introduction The Intel Media and Graphics Driver, EFI Driver, and Video BIOS (Intel EMGD) are designed to meet the requirements of embedded applications. Featuring Intel Dynamic Display Configuration Technology (DDCT), the drivers run on the following Intel Architecture (eia) chipsets: Intel Atom Processor E6xx Intel EMGD is designed to work with fixed-function systems, such as In-vehicle Infotainment (IVI) devices, Point-of-Sale (POS) devices, ATMs, gaming devices, etc. It can be configured to work with various hardware and software systems and supports Microsoft * and Linux* operating systems, including embedded versions of these operating systems. Please refer to the Intel Media and Graphics Drive, EFI Video Driver, and Video BIOS User Guide and RELNOTES.txt in the software package for a detailed description of the supported features and display devices. Purpose/Scope/Audience This document is a compilation of Errata. It is intended for those who need to work with the graphics subsystem. This includes, but is not limited to: platform designers, system BIOS developers, system integrators, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), system control application developers, as well as end users. This document may also contain information that was not previously published. This document provides information on open errata in all supported Intel EMGD packages for version 1.18 of the Intel EMGD product. It includes information on the following packages: Microsoft Document Number: 480302-00US 5

VESA BIOS Extension (VBE) Core Functions Standard Version 3.0, available at the following website: http://www.vesa.org/public/vbe/vbe3.pdf Contains information on the VESA BIOS Extension (VBE) specification for standard software access to graphics display controllers that support resolutions, color depths, and frame buffer organizations beyond the VGA hardware standard. N/A N/A Conventions and Terminology Table 2. Conventions and Terminology Term Errata (plural) Erratum (singular) Definition Errata are design defects or errors. These may cause the Intel Media and Graphics Driver, EFI Driver, and Video BIOS behavior to deviate from published specifications. Hardware and software designed to be used with any given release must assume that all errata documented for that release are present on all devices. 6 Document Number: 480302-00US

Intel EMGD Errata Errata 1. Device performance is slow and the system intermittently hangs when rotation (90/20 degrees) and flip is enabled. Reference #: 20338 Driver: Graphics Resolution: On a single display device with rotation (90/20 degrees) and flip enabled, the device performance is slow in accessing folders, etc. in the image. When SDVO is the primary port of choice, due to low performance, playing video and dragging and dropping objects around the desktop, the system intermittently hangs. This is a hardware limitation and it will not be fixed. Status: No Fix (Hardware limitation) 2. Microsoft CTK GDI & DDRAW Test Suite Failures. Reference #: 20391 Driver: Graphics Resolution: Hardware has limitation that it does not support creation of YV12 and I420 type offscreen surfaces in video memory. YUV planar render surface allocation is not supported while YUV planar overlay surface allocation is supported. Status: No Fix (Hardware limitation) 3. 3D Mobile Mark 2.0 test causes corruption and hangs up. Reference #: 204558 Driver: Graphics Resolution: Using 3dMark Mobile tests on may result in driver crashes during testing at this time. For now, please do not use 3DMark Mobile on. OpenGL support is known to work when used from normal applications. Status: TBD 8 Document Number: 480302-00US
Errata Intel EMGD 4. QT application fails when using eglchooseconfig() to create OGL context. Reference #: 204608 Driver: Graphics Resolution: Qt uses the eglchooseconfig() function to create the OpenGL context, but this failed when running under for all OpenGL apps. This issue will not be fixed in the graphics driver. Status: No Fix 5. Display is corrupted when booting from EPOG to * OS. Reference #: 20494 Driver: Graphics Resolution: The recommended workaround for this issue is to set the following in the intel_cs.bat file: Status: set IMGRAM256=1 No Fix (Not a defect) 6. The driver fails to support secondary panel display on resolution 13x with composite video and s-video of CH022*. Reference #: 205528 Driver: Graphics Resolution: This issue is under investigation and there is no planned workaround at this time. Status: TBD. Application shows error message when using DXShow Codec. Reference #: 205596 Driver: Graphics Resolution: This issue is under investigation and there is no planned workaround at this time. Status: TBD Document Number: 480302-00US 9
