Thanks for the help. So version 2.0 has both binaries, but in different |
| 21 |
places. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
This is what it looks like for the stable version (1.4.2): |
| 24 |
% qlist read-edid |
| 25 |
/usr/share/man/man1/get-edid.1.lzma |
| 26 |
/usr/share/man/man1/parse-edid.1.lzma |
| 27 |
/usr/share/doc/read-edid-1.4.2/AUTHORS.lzma |
| 28 |
/usr/share/doc/read-edid-1.4.2/README.lzma |
| 29 |
/usr/share/doc/read-edid-1.4.2/ChangeLog.lzma |
| 30 |
/usr/share/doc/read-edid-1.4.2/NEWS.lzma |
| 31 |
/usr/sbin/parse-edid |
| 32 |
/usr/lib/debug/usr/sbin/parse-edid.debug |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
So actually the stable version fails to install get-edid. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
(I also had a problem with bash not finding the parse-edid binary after |
| 38 |
upgrading to 2.0, since then /usr/sbin/parse-edid was removed and |
| 39 |
/usr/bin/parse-edid was added without bash knowing about it. Ctrl+D and |
| 40 |
starting the shell again fixed it though.) |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
Now to the actual result: |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
/usr/sbin/get-edid: get-edid version 2.0.0 |

Any idea why it fails? Is that why xorg can not read the display size either? If so, why does it just pick a random display size without reporting the error? |
