Bash – How to check if EDID can be tusted

bashedidxorg

read-edid gives me the message "The EDID data should not be trusted as the VBE call failed". Thats okay, but I want to find out, that this data is not reliable, another way, because I can't use read-edid on our system. Personally I can find it out studying the Xorg.log, but imho this would be a pretty improper way.

Is there a nice way to check the reliability of the EDID data?

Best Answer

try xrandr --verbose. It shows the raw edid detail as well.
