First, thanks for the VC definition. Based on that bit of info above, wouldn't it make sense to use the: Option "UseEDID" "FALSE"
Most likely, although getting any random mode to work on a DFP seems rather unlikely.
and in the xorg.conf and manually input the needed settings? I also would consider adding: Option "UseDisplayDevice" "DFP" just to be sure. I believe that is what I had to do a few years back when my nvidia card insisted on using only the analog output.
From the X log, its already using the DFP, its just that its not going
with a valid native mode, since the EDID seems to be borked. What would be most useful right now is to start X with the following command: startx -- -logverbose 5 and then send the resulting X log so that we can see what's actually in the EDID. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ L.
