starting with 4.19.5, all my fedora kernels fail to get edid info during boot
and are consequently missing /sys/class/drm/*
so graphical resolution is degraded to vga

Ive not really concerned myself too much with it,
cuz Ive been building my own kernels from kernel.org, and they pick up EDID

fwiw, I start with fedora.config, and do localmodconfig.
iiuc, this reduces module builds to those usable on the hardware?

and its an old box, or someone else would have noticed

vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 6
model : 23
model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU     E7400  @ 2.80GHz
stepping : 10
microcode : 0xa0b
cpu MHz : 2792.715


but in the ensuing months, grub2-mkconfig is failing to update
grub.cfg properly,
so its slightly more tedious, and I should start investigating proper fixes.
