Another tool, read-edid (<a href="http://polypux.org/projects/read-edid/">http://polypux.org/projects/read-edid/</a>) seems to use the i2c interface, but I've not tried to see if it works. Looking at the monitor-edid output, it seems like it's using the VBE mode to correctly get this information, but I have to do a "setsebool mmap_low_allowed 1" previously to make it actually work. Could this be somewhat related to the fact that nouveau can't get the information?</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
