Additionally, it's more likely the driver that's ignoring CLOSEST_CLOCK rather than XFree86 too. I didn't say it was XFree86 to blame here. There's some work to fix all this up correctly and the i810 driver just makes it worse when it has complete reliance on the Video BIOS.

EDID Prefered mode problems
I'm running 4.5.99.18 and having problems with supporting HDReady panels. The HDReady panels support [EMAIL PROTECTED] typically.

Is this problem with EDID prefered mode known about? Have we missed a way to makes things work? BTW the Xorg folks are also fighting this problem. See Xorg bugzilla 5386.
