Here's a suggested patch for the problem. The patch looks for the use of the EDID related options in all the pertinent sections and only adds the option UseEDIDFreqs if none are present and no monitor frequencies are specified. Comments are added to alert the owner that the option should be removed should it be desirable to override the monitor returned frequency values. The option, and the comments, are automatically removed by displayconfig-gtk should the computer owner select new settings.
