There are similar failure reports for EDID over conventional VGA:

subsequent http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2006-November/019626.html
and http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2006-November/019648.html - as

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2006-December/020728.html
The "intel" alternative ("modesetting" branch) will not currently
compile anymore on Ubuntu 6.10, though, cf.
