Many user-space compositors fail with mode setting if a CRTC has
more than one connected connector. This is the case with the BMC
on Aspeed systems. Work around this problem by setting the BMC's
connector status to disconnected when the physical connector has
a display attached. This way compositors will only see one connected
connector at a time; either the physical one or the BMC.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
