Yeah, the goal is that X can do this by itself, and I guess other distros are using "get-edid|parse-edid" or something similar to make this happen. Since your get-edid output is similar to the one I get on my samsung syncmaster 900NF monitor, I guess that X discards your monitors edid information too. Are you sure you don't have the monitor section filled with data about the monitor when using the "nv" driver? I guess that nvidia binary driver could have separate edid code, but I doubt that "nv" has one.
I hope we'll have some code in Xorg server soon, so you'll be able to test the fix. On 6/9/07, Jerone Young <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Nvidia driver & NV driver seem to read the edid just fine.
