[Bug 299253] EDID reading fails for the second monitor on recent CURRENT
Date: Sun, 18 Oct 2026 17:33:46 UTC
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=299253 --- Comment #8 from Marek Zarychta <zarychtam@plan-b.pwste.edu.pl> --- (In reply to Vladimir Kondratyev from comment #7) After this commit, the framebuffer resolution for the second monitor is no longer correct; only the resolution of the first monitor is set correctly. Furthermore, framebuffer initialisation appears to interfere with EDID reading on the second monitor, preventing Xorg from detecting its supported display modes and causing a conflict between the framebuffer configuration and Xorg. Please test the framebuffer with at least two different monitors connected (monitors supporting different resolutions). This should make the regression apparent. As a workaround, one can set hw.vga.textmode="1". However, I still consider this a regression, if not a bug, since the framebuffer should handle multiple monitors with different resolutions correctly, and this workaround simply disables the framebuffer. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
