Hello;
I read the Post here https://www.osadl.org/Single-View.111 M591850c02b5.0.html ; and i tried to make do with what i understood from the post but here are some questions:
1. where is the /lib/firmware located ;in for example /usr/src/linux/lib/firmware or /usr/lib/firmware or elsewhere?
2.Could i use a pre-build EDID in that address the post gave and tweak it with an editor like Gvim and pass it to kernel using the info bellow; the resolution i am trying is 1600x900@60
Code:
  1: [H PIXELS RND]  :  1600.000000
  2: [V LINES RND]  :  450.000000
  3: [V FIELD RATE RQD]  :  120.000000
  4: [TOP MARGIN (LINES)]  :  8.000000
  5: [BOT MARGIN (LINES)]  :  8.000000
  6: [INTERLACE]  :  0.500000
  7: [H PERIOD EST]  :  16.648841
  8: [V SYNC+BP]  :  33.000000
  9: [V BACK PORCH]  :  30.000000
  10: [TOTAL V LINES]  :  500.500000
  11: [V FIELD RATE EST]  :  120.008471
  12: [H PERIOD]  :  16.650017
  13: [V FIELD RATE]  :  120.000000
  14: [V FRAME RATE]  :  60.000000
  15: [LEFT MARGIN (PIXELS)]  :  32.000000
  16: [RIGHT MARGIN (PIXELS)]  :  32.000000
  17: [TOTAL ACTIVE PIXELS]  :  1664.000000
  18: [IDEAL DUTY CYCLE]  :  25.004995
  19: [H BLANK (PIXELS)]  :  560.000000
  20: [TOTAL PIXELS]  :  2224.000000
  21: [PIXEL FREQ]  :  133.573440
  22: [H FREQ]  :  60.060000
  17: [H SYNC (PIXELS)]  :  176.000000
  18: [H FRONT PORCH (PIXELS)]  :  104.000000
  36: [V ODD FRONT PORCH(LINES)]  :  1.500000
