Bug#1050315: Please include sun8i-drm-hdmi module in installer
Package: fb-modules-6.4.0-3-arm64-di
Version: 6.4.11-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Dear Debian Kernel Team,
Please could you include the sun8i-drm-hdmi module in the
fb-modules udeb for arm64?
It would allow the installer to run on a local HDMI display on
some 64-bit Allwinner boards such as the Orange Pi One Plus.
(Currently installation has to be done over the serial port.)
I've suggested a patch below.
Thank you very much,
Harold.
