The new Xorg server should be able to query monitor by itself for DDC edid info
about it's capatibilities. This functionality works for me if I leave out
monitor specific information from my Xorg.conf like this:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Generic Monitor"
Option "DPMS"
EndSection
In the edid info there should be data for the recommended resolution and
refresh rate. The problem is however that some monitors have this data
wrong (so you don't get the right resolution or refresh rate), or the
checksum of the complete data wrong (so you don't get the edid data used
by X at all). Either way, could you send the output of the get-edid >
Philips170B.edid as attachment to this bug, and possibly the xorg
mailing list, so we can see what's wrong with the data and add a quirk
for it in the Xorg code?
