It's typically not the chipset that's the problem. The move from LVDS to 
embedded DisplayPort means that it's now the driver's job to make sure 
there's a trained link between the chipset and the panel, and it turns 
out that panels are often very particular about the setup they want for 
anything to work. The typical outcome of this is that we try to program 
link training, fail and your panel turns off.

It could be any number of other problems as well, of course, but these 
days most of the bugs like this are specific to a given 
chipset/bios/panel combination rather than just being the chipset.
