Just a quick update although not much has happened:

The letux-4.7 kernel with my patches has been semi-successfully tested on pyra hardware. Strangely, although it initially works correctly, Michael reported the display turns off after 10 seconds. Dumping properties after the display turned off shows DPMS = Off and no modes listed on the connector, all crtcs and layers inactive. Having any process open /dev/dri/card0 (implicitly grabbing DRM master) prevents this from happening, but then the display turns off the moment the file descriptor is closed.

And what happens if you then try to run a DRM application? I presume everything fails after that, if there are no modes for the connector.
