Thank you for the suggestions. Actually, I was poking around some on google, and found that the nvidia binary driver already has a fake edid option, but it sure seems like it would be more useful if it was driver independent. (I hope all the individual drivers don't all implement separate code to read edid info). I even found a hardware edid emulator that lets you override edid info outside the box on the way to the video plug :-). -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
