@Pedro - sorry for late answer, I was offline. I did not have read-edit and had to install it: sudo apt-get install read-edid
There is a problem with the command line: florin@florin-VirtualBox:~$ get-edid | parse-edid &> edid2.txt get-edid: get-edid version 2.0.0 mmap /dev/zero: Operation not permitted get-edid: error initialising realmode interface get-edid: do you have full superuser (root) permissions? And the file contains only this: parse-edid: parse-edid version 2.0.0 parse-edid: IO error reading EDID -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/841821 Title: Color manager shows [invalid UTF-8] Status in GNOME Control Center: Incomplete Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Settings manager -> Color -> monitor name shows with invalid UTF-8: [Invalid UTF-8] - VBOX monitor ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: gnome-control-center 1:3.1.90-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-10.16-generic 3.0.4 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-10-generic x86_64 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Sep 5 16:30:41 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Beta amd64 (20110901) ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: gnome-control-center UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oneiric on 2011-09-01 (3 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/841821/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
