There is an alternative to endless explanation - roll out your best effort at a heuristic and let the crowd contribute to an ever growing set of exceptions. To play the devil's advocate, I'm asking why the monitor situation is different from any other bit of hardware. Drivers for mice, touchpads, wifi, NICs etc all suffer from the same lack of rigorous published specs / documentation, they are supported in Linux, fallibly, by ever growing tables of parameters and heuristics. -Cam -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
