# CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID is not set

The user has *explicitly* disabled acquisition of EDID from the
firmware, so of course it doesn't probe for it.

I'm not versed with all this EDID and resolution stuff, but shouldn't the resolution be detected correctly under all configurations?

The original problem is that as of 2.6.20.11, the resolution is misdetected - it is wrong by 6 pixels. The same configuration with 2.6.20.10 works fine.

With the 2.6.20.10/2.6.20.11 configuration, the user did have CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID set. I'm not sure why he changed this for the -mm testing, but then again I don't understand why it should matter.
