How to find out modeline without attaching actual device?

[Paul Menzel]

Dear Linux folks,


regarding modelines problems with some TVs [1] and EDID quirks, Ian sent
nice patches for [2], is there a way to test what modeline the DRM
subsystem would choose without actually attaching the device?

The problem is, the TV is at a different place and I rarely have access
to it. So it would be great if I could just use some kind of simulator
and pass the EDID to it, what connector it is on (though this should not
matter) and I get the calculated modeline as a result.

This should be enough since I already know what modeline works.


Thanks,

Paul
