dmesg | pastebinit

did you even put the edid to the correct location?

[BertusG]

Yes I verified the correct location. Hereby the requested output:

Try

Code:

video=HDMI-A-1:D

e: output forced to on
d: output forced to off
D: digital output forced to on

If that doesn't work, add/boot with drm.debug=14 and dmesg | pastebinit again.

Unfortunately video=HDMI-A-1 didn't help. My edid file is only 1kb large, can this be wrong? I used these instructions:

Code:

sudo mkdir -p /lib/firmware/edid
sudo cp /sys/class/drm/card0-HDMI-A-1/edid /lib/firmware/edid/edid.bin

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/edid.bin video=HDMI-A-1:e"

But read in an other topic http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=...pid1888971

yes, although the method of obtaining the edid can be a little different if you have intel gfx. At least on my intel systems /sys/class/drm/card0-HDMI-A-1/edid is always empty. In that case, you can get the edid from

Code:

xrandr -q --verbose

Unfortanetly xrandr gives me the can't open display output. Is there an other way to obtain the edid?

EDID is typically 256 bytes (or 128 if it's a very old device).

I guess it could be partial or invalid maybe. But I think you would see warnings or errors in the dmesg if so. If you post it somewhere I can verify that it's valid.

Like I said before, add drm.debug=14 to the grub cmdline and dmesg |pastebinit. That will give a lot more info.

I don't think the ouput is very useful:

Yeah all the useful info is before that. It should be in /var/log/kern.log.

I extracted the lines from the log:

Link to my edid (I think it's correct > 256 bytes):

EDID definitely seems valid:

Not sure about your log. There are errors loading the edid early on but it succeeds later. I guess you have the edid on the filesystem but not in the initramfs?

Does

Code:

cat /sys/class/drm/card0-HDMI-A-1/enabled

return with disabled or enabled?

If enabled, try:

Code:

xrandr --output HDMI1 --off

then wait a few seconds and:

Code:

xrandr --output HDMI1 --auto
