It's 431691. It has been looked at before, so I don't know that you'll
be able to do anything more now. Plus it isn't that high of a priority
for me as I have the routine of patching down to where it only takes me
a couple of minutes to do updates. I'd rather have you guys finishing up
the mode setting stuff in time for the release than working on that particular
bug right now.

For the record to make my card work I force MT_DFP to be set for my
monitor instead of MT_NONE (in a way that isn't generally appropiate).
I entered the thread in response to Jesse's request about bugs filed
for issues related to EDID problems.
