Indeed this looks like a related problem. I'm just confused why the forced edid worked with kernel 4.14.x, worked with kernel 4.15.x with the error messages and finally is broken in 4.16.8. I get the error messages but no output at all. Since I use the same LibreELEC base and just switch the kernel version it looks like it's related to some driver changes.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> <li>You are on the CC list for the bug.</li> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
