Description of problem: My two monitors report incorrect display sizes when queried using DDC. In previous versions of Fedora, and according to the X documentation, I can just override it in the Monitor section: DisplaySize width height In FC6 this is overridden by the DDC-supplied values, so I either have to disable DDC completely or resort to overriding the DPI with the runtime flag -dpi. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.1.1-47.2.fc6 xorg-x11-drv-i810-1.6.5-10.fc6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add Monitor section to xorg.conf and set the default Screen to use it 2. Add DisplaySize overrides to the Monitor section 3. Run X, do xdpyinfo | grep dimension Actual results: Dimensions not overridden, old dimensions reported Expected results: Dimensions should be set to the ones given in the Monitor section Additional info:
Thanks for the bug report. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue. Please attach your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) and X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link below. Could you please also try to run without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf whatsoever and let X11 autodetect your display and video card? Attach to this bug /var/log/Xorg.0.log from this attempt as well, please. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.

That's the xorg.conf created at install time, and the corresponding log file. I lost my initial modified xorg.conf, and surprisingly, this time the changes I applied actually works. Will attach the modified xorg.conf and its Xorg.0.log after this. So the only problem left is that DisplaySize is not automatically detected.

Yeah, we weren't checking for DisplaySize having been set before sizing the monitor. Although it's weird that this was an issue for you, since afaict you're not getting EDID info at all. Checked in a patch to 1.2.0-10.fc7 that should address this. Thanks!
