A few years ago, I got some cheap 27″ korean display (strongly influenced by this). Getting it to work properly with Xorg was not straightforward due to some corrupted EDID. I’m not sure where I got the original instructions from (might be there). I suspect that this record might come by handy when switching to wayland…
Anyway, I ended up with:
$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/30-screen.conf Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "My GPU" Monitor "QHD270" DefaultDepth 24 Option "CustomEDID" "DFP:/etc/X11/shimian-edid.bin" SubSection "Display" Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection
and:
$ hexdump shimian-edid.bin 0000000 ff00 ffff ffff 00ff 6204 049b 0000 0000 0000010 1528 0301 3ca5 7822 6f22 a7b1 4c55 259e 0000020 500c 0054 0000 0101 0101 0101 0101 0101 0000030 0101 0101 0101 5e56 a000 a0a0 5029 2030 0000040 0035 5055 0021 1a00 0000 fc00 5100 4448 0000050 3732 0a30 2020 2020 2020 0000 fc00 0a00 0000060 2020 2020 2020 2020 2020 2020 0000 fc00 0000070 0a00 2020 2020 2020 2020 2020 2020 7e00 0000080 000a 0000081
