I have a laptop. As soon as I connect my external monitor via HDMI,
dmesg provides the following error:
[drm:drm_edid_block_valid] *ERROR* EDID checksum is invalid, remainder is 254
Raw EDID:

When I connect the external monitor via VGA, it works fine.
The external monitor also used to work fine via HDMI/DVI quite some time ago.
xrandr has the following output (the external monitor in connected by
VGA and also by HDMI/DVI):
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1600 x 900, maximum 8192 x 8192
LVDS1 connected 1600x900+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 382mm x
214mm

HDMI1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
So I can't even active the monitor by HDMI (xrandr --output HDMI1 --auto
hs no effect).
As anyone found a workaround?
