Yes, you are on the rigth way. Also you must play with EDID behavior options, for example this should use your custom timings (DTD) only in case EDID was detected or not:
Code:
Option "ALL/1/Port/2/General/Edid" "1"
Option "ALL/1/Port/2/General/EdidAvail" "4"
Option "ALL/1/Port/2/General/EdidNotAvail" "4"
Here is snippet from the Intel's guide:
Code:
• Edid
This boolean key enables (set to 1) or disables (set to 0) the EdidAvail and
EdidNotAvail keys.
• EdidAvail and EdidNotAvail
These two 16-bit keys control the available timings for the display. If an EDID is
successfully read from the display device, then Intel® EMGD uses the EdidAvail flag
to determine what timings are available. Otherwise, if an EDID cannot be read,
then Intel® EMGD uses the EdidNotAvail key.
Bit #
Value (0 or 1)
0 Disable/Enable driver built-in timings
1 Disable/Enable EDID timings. (Only valid for
the EdidAvail flag)
2 Disable/Enable DTD
3-15
Reserved
You must add these EDID lines and your custom timings in our xorg.conf under Section "Device" after
Code:
Option "ALL/1/Port/2/General/name" "DVI"
# Your EDID and DTD changes here
