Yes, but that is a fact of life: there is so much crappy and deficient hardware out there -- not having an EDID, not responding to any kind of polling, simply undetectable. /But/... they work perfectly well when fed with the right input. So, defaulting to VGA when nothing can be detected would be nice. And allowing the user to override this with an xorg.conf option telling the driver that there /is/ a VGA/DVI/XXX device connected even if it can't be detected, would be even better. Detection is beautiful, but it simply won't work for all devices.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
