I am sorry for the trouble caused by this. As a work around, you could
also specify the QUIRKS on the Linux command line.

Hmm, I guess everything is identical but the DVI connector they added to
the VW222U. Though I should have noticed the effect on the VW222S and
did not. :(

Could you please send the `edid-decode` output on your system and
`/var/log/Xorg.0.log`.

Also I wonder how this quirk could create such a behavior.


Thanks,

Paul
