Well, I believe that I've been experiencing the EDID parse failure as my notebook exhibits ALL of the symptons listed here, limited to one resolution(fortunately highest native LCD res), ddcprobe EDID fail, xrandr one res(highest) reported, read-edid and parsing fail as everyone else's above does.

MSI MS-1651 WSXGA+ LCD (1680 x 1050), P8600, 2 x 2GB Kingston ValueRAM CL5, WDC WD3200BEVT (320GB non-base 10 impared, c. 300GB to everyone else), 9600M GT 512MB GDDR3 (This is basically the same thing as the MSI GX620 -038 US model.) nVidia 177.80 restricted drives in use.

The nVidia driver thinks that the LCD panel is a seiko, but looking inside of the dump for edid that I get using the nVidia driver it is identified as a Samsung LTN154P4-L01. Only could turn up an LTN150 on Samsung's site, so I've no clue as to the correct sync and refresh values.
