 Great! Your patch works for kernel 2.6.38-rc2-0.0.7.4bf0e68-desktop.
I can start an X-server over HDMI with radeon.audio=0 but not without.
However this may be of not too great use to us since this specific kernel
version triggers a fallback to UMS as KMS is broken there (and bisecting it
won`t make sense either since it is a bug not an antibug). Nonetheless taking
the DVI-edid is a definite improvement. Tomorrow I will re-test with
drm.edid_strict=0 on this particular kernel version and commence tests per VGA
connector.
 There also still seems to be a bug in KMS itself not only in the EDID the
monitor gives us (Your patches won`t do the job on kernels where it doesn`t
work with DVI either; as far as I can see that, so that testing them there
won`t be of use.).
