Try this.
Shut down X
Start it up again like this
Code:
startx -- -logverbose 6
Then open up
/var/log/Xorg.0.log and search for
EDID
Read from there on.
You also get the "raw EDID" as hex data in that log, which you can decode with the help of this link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extende...ification_data
Somewhere windows has a program that can be used to display the meaning of the hex file and possibly edit the
edid.bin data (that is easy to grab if you have an nvidia card: run
nvidia-settings Then I clock GPU0 (GeForceGo
6400) then I see my monitor listed (DFP0 Default flat panel), I click that, & in the Right pane, there's a button to "Acquire EDID". Click it)
This link (
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...38#post2850938 ) points to a l-o-n-g thread I was posting to in 2007. There's quite a lot of information about EDID in that thread, some of it may be helpful.
