Chris, you mention overriding the EDID. I have a similar problem using the i915 driver with a laptop display that fails to report its EDID. I have tried using drm_kms_helper, but I haven't gotten it to work yet. /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-LVDS-1/edid contains correct EDID data from my firmware/edid file, but /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-LVDS-1/modes remains empty and the driver provides incompatible modes. Could someone possibly help me?
