Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2010-08-26 18:47:55 UTC
Thank you for your bug report. This issue was evaluated for inclusion
in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Unfortunately, we
are unable to address this request in the current release. Because we
are in the final stage of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 development, only
significant, release-blocking issues involving serious regressions and
data corruption can be considered.

If you believe this issue meets the release blocking criteria as
defined and communicated to you by your Red Hat Support representative,
please ask your representative to file this issue as a blocker for the
current release. Otherwise, ask that it be evaluated for inclusion in
the next minor release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Erk, didn't mean to change state.

Xorg.log from RHEL6.1

On our systems with failing EDID, mga still comes up with the weirdo mode 1360x768 by default.

Comment 22 Martin Wilck 2011-04-11 09:29:29 UTC
The previous log was from xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.4.12-*3*, which is included in RHEL6.1 beta snapshot 2.

With xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.4.12-*4* and no valid DDC data, both gdm and the user screen come up with a resolution of 1024x768.

Xorg.log from xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.4.12-4

Comment 24 Martin Wilck 2011-04-11 09:31:06 UTC
So, the problem appears to be fixed in xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.4.12-4.
Thank you!
