Summary : Tool for reading EDID information
Description :
A pair of tools for reading the Extended Display Identification Data
(EDID) from a monitor. Assuming the video card supports the standard
read commands, the utilities should work with most monitors made
since 1996. 256-byte EDIDs are not supported, though.
- get-edid, which gets the raw edid information from the monitor.
- parse-edid, which turns the raw binary information into an
xorg-compatible monitor section.
