There is now a patch for this bug proposed to upstream kernel. See https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/7/207
I've backported the patch to Ubuntu Natty. You will find the fixed kernel packages under "https://launchpad.net/~rdratlos/+archive/ppa- asus-m2a-fix". @Alex: Could you please test the fixed kernel on your system and provide me with the results? I'm especially interested in the dmesg output. Please take also care that under the testing kernel the poll option is set in /sys/module/drm_kms_helper/parameters/poll. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/722806 Title: Asus M2A-VM: kernel demanding EDID for an unconnected monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/722806/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
