Yeah, it should should read the EDID data But the Samsung screen I
have presently
does'nt share its EDID data with solaris. Probably a bug in the screens
microcode.
Maybe its the KVM unit between the computer and the screen thats the cause.
So I figured I needed to know if I had the
correct values before buying a new screen.
Anyway, Here is what happends when Xorg 7.02 tries to read my existing
Samsung MP242 24" screen :
Solaris Nevada version is Build 64a
Nvidia Driver:
NVDAgraphics NVIDIA Graphics System Software

And this is the correct behavior with the Modeline
