Is there an way to get my 2.4 > behavior in my 2.5 kernel? Its the edid code. I have had 3 results reported. One is the EDID doesn't work at all because the edid block is total corrupt.

That code still needs alot of work. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf
