Is this the same monitor you posted here? http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112807065616218&w=2 If yes, we already have the manufacturer and model code. The main problem is that the EDID of this display has no sync range (H: 75-75kHz and V: 60-60Hz). Extending Hsync from 30-75kHz as a fix to the EDID block shouldn't be too hard. I already have a patch for this which I forgot to send to you before :-). If you can confirm that this is still the same hardware, I'll send you a test patch Tony - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
