 Edid-decode
Subject description: Decodes both monitor and audio info |
|
url is cgit/freedesktop.org/xorg/app/edid-decode Last change: 2012-09-26
In addition to monitor edid info, it also gives audio edid info.
Audio edid is something new (at least to me). This may provide useful info
for alsa type problems. (I don't use it.)
The following command gives the monitor raw hex DRM edid info for the
really new kernels like k3.8.0. Perhaps it could be a usable alternative
source for xorgwizard. I am aware of get-edid and ddcprobe.
cat /sys/class/drm/card*/*/edid | hd
Thanks.

Not to bother since ddcprobe segfaults for me with 3.x kernels :
Did
| Code: | | git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/edid-decode |
and a make but it seems not to like older kernels (2.6.30.x) or Xorg-server 1.3.0 : does nothing, even does not eat any CPU .
Will test with newer 3.4.x kernels soon .

Now i know how to use it :
| Code: | | edid-decode /path/to/get-edid.edid |
using
| Code: | | get-edid >get-edid.edid |
which is giving me needed output like
get-edid : VBE string at 0x11110 "Intel(r)Q33/Q35/G33 Graphics Chip Accelerated VGA BIOS"
edid-decode : Monitor name: L768

BTW : Since i dont have the drm driver(s) loaded " cat /sys/class/drm/card*/*/edid " does not work for me -- find /sys -iname "*edid" has no output at all here .

Update : get-edid behaves like ddcprobe : They both work in sakura/vte terminal but are segfaulting in true xterm and in the black linux console (kernel 3.5.0-KRG-iCore2-smp-pae-srv1000gz) .
