Well, it actually _could_ be in the EDID provided I could find a single
panel that actually implemented the Display Information EDID Extension
block as defined by VESA :) But so far, I haven't seen any.

It _looks_ like the firmware is enabling it on this machine. I've
modified nvidiafb to conserve the firmware setting by default, I'll send
a patch doing the same to XFree if you are ok with it.
