Maybe Daniel or Chris can comment on that high quantity of DP/HDMI connectors seen by driver. Those are probably also the cause of the persistent EDID complaints in kernel log. You could maybe try to disable those outputs in xorg.conf in order to not get your log filled with bad EDID complaints for "unused" connectors. But as specifying the EDID as firmware it's just a work-around to the issue. Bruno > Something is just not right here. I'm beginning to think it's not me. > > Mark
