I haven't tested the display adapter I ordered yet but I thought the links
here might be of general interest.

No pun intended, but it's always nice to be able to have a default
resolution for a display problem.

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_edid_load.c

I came across these while looking for more info on HDMI. With so many
different display connection types and so many different Flat Panel
Displays, it's good to know where and how to take control, without
resorting to turning off kernel modeset at runtime.
