First, don't attach log files as tarballs because it makes it harder for bug triagers and developers to view them (we have to download and untar them each time we want to look). Please re-attach each file individually.

Second, don't file bugs against xorg as well as another X component. 'xorg' is simply a meta package and doesn't actually have any X code in it, so if you've already determined the bug to be an issue in a specific package, it's entirely unnecessary to file against xorg as well, unless there's an actual task that needs done in the meta package.

Third, file *separate* bug reports for each issue you find, unless you suspect the issues are related. Upstream has a rule of one-issue-one-reporter-per-report. You've reported two distinct problems (actually 4 - the unknown parameter bit may be an entirely separate issue, unless you've tied the appearance of the messages to one of the other two issues; and the repeating EDID stuff is also an unrelated problem, and likely not X that causes it actually).

Fourth, you've used a poorly worded title for this bug. You should revise it to better describe the problem you're reporting.
