Subject: monitor loses DVI after KMS / EDID issue?
Message-ID: <87d0k6owx5....@jnanam.net>

<snip>

As well as manually configuring xorg.conf (relying on the the output
of `hwinfo --monitor`) to:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Section "Device"
    Identifier  "DefaultDevice"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier  "DefaultMonitor"
    HorizSync   24-83
    VertRefresh 50-77
    Option      "TargetRefreshRate" "60"
    Option      "DDC"   "off"
    Option      "DPMS"  "off"
    Option      "DefaultModes"  "on"
    Option      "PreferredMode" "1280x1024"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
    Identifier  "DefaultScreen"
    Device      "DefaultDevice"
    Monitor     "DefaultMonitor"
EndSection


Your screen section is the likely culprit, I had similar "dvi going to sleep" problems which I finally eradicated with the following screen section (note that your metamodes are probably completely different from mine):

Section "Screen"
    Identifier     "Screen0"
    Device         "Device0"
    Monitor        "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth    24
    Option         "IgnoreEDIDChecksum" "CRT"
    Option         "Stereo" "0"
Option "metamodes" "2560x1440 +0+0; 1680x1050 +0+0; 1280x1024 +0+0; 800x600 +0+0; 640x480 +0+0"
    Option         "SLI" "Off"
    Option         "MultiGPU" "Off"
    Option         "BaseMosaic" "off"
    SubSection     "Display"
        Depth       24
    EndSubSection
EndSection
