Apologies for my ambiguity; I didn't mean to suggest that an EDID-
alike format be sent to the apps, but rather was asking about taking
the firmware's existing EDID-alike data and converting it into EDID
format for the apps.
It seems that there will need to be significant driver-specific code
for doing that, depending on how many different ways firmware on the
different platforms stores the data, yes?
