This isn't supposed to be a debate where one's only concern is to win the argument. I believe the onus to reply is on anyone who knows the answer to the question. In case no one knows the answer for certain, then ideally it would be on all of us who wants what is best for the project. Anyway, I thought I'd find out for myself. I went to the ViewSonic website and downloaded the drivers for WinXP (http://www.viewsonic.com/support/drivers/download.cfm?key=37). It turns out that they supply 2 to 3 file per monitor. An optional .cat file (Catalog file. not sure what that is but it looks like a signature file), an .icm file (Microsoft ICM Color Profile) and the .inf file. I took a random INF file and am pasting it in this email. I'm also just pasting the parts which seem relative to the objective of coming up with valid Modes and ModeLines: [VLCDS23412-1.Install] ;VX800 DelReg=DEL_CURRENT_REG AddReg=VLCDS23412-1.AddReg,1280,DPMS Copyfiles=VLCDS23412-1.CopyFiles [DEL_CURRENT_REG] HKR,MODES HKR,,MaxResolution HKR,,DPMS HKR,,ICMProfile [1280] HKR,,MaxResolution,,"1280,1024" [DPMS] HKR,,DPMS,,1 [VLCDS23412-1.AddReg] ;VX800 HKR,"MODES\1280,1024",Mode1,,"24-82,56-85,+,+" HKR,,ICMProfile,0,"VX800.ICM" [VLCDS23412-1.CopyFiles] VX800.ICM I've no idea what these are for, but I'm hoping someone who knows a lot more can tell me if there's any value here. Unfortunately, I don't know which monitors / displays don't give correct EDID information so this is as far as my research could go. -- Richi Plana -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
