I have messed with them (hence the comments), no change. Those EDID maxes are surely bogus, I have run 2048x1536 (real, not virtual) on this before no problems, within spec. Only with the newer driver does it complain. Even if i tell it to ignore EDID. Thank you for the reply :) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
