Here's a temporary workaround:

In drivers/video/nvidia/nv_i2c.c:nvidia_probe_i2c_connector(),comment
this out:

        if (par->chan[conn - 1].par)
                edid = fb_ddc_read(&par->chan[conn - 1].adapter);

and make sure CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID=y.


With this patch, I don't get any dmesg info about my monitor EDID, but
I still get the snow. Could it be that there's something else on my
system which is setting the video to some absurd timings when I
switchg on the framebuffer console? I'm running an up-to-date debian
unstable.
