Comment 12 for bug 379157

Thank you for the updated information. I'll hold off upstreaming until you get around to do the final testing.

It's interesting to see that ddcprobe and get-edid reads the edid information just fine. I thought one of the tests the driver does for detecting the presence of a monitor is to check for EDID information (i830_crt_detect_ddc() in http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel/tree/src/i830_crt.c).
