It is only available via VBT. We seem to try to use the modes from EDID if available. Does the panel not respond to EDID requests, or does it have incorrect EDID information? We only fallback to trying the mode from VBT if no modes can be found from EDID. > You added once eDP support to VLV, can you > give me some information on the following questions: > > Is there a way to force the i915.ko to get the > panel timing / resolution for the eDP from the > VBT and not via i2c from the eDP? > > Can you give me some advice, how to add this > option to the source files of i915.ko? > > I'm using 3.14.29, but I have also tried 4.0.0-rc7. See intel_edp_init_connector() in drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_dp.c, look at how fixed_mode is set. Maybe you can change that to prefer VBT. An alternative would be to get EDID using the firmware loading interface, but also for that you'd have to call drm_load_edid_firmware() in intel_edp_init_connector() instead of drm_get_edid().
