Hi xor
That github link looks like it has not been active in 3 years.

I think what you want might be the boot code:
Code: [Select]
drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware
This link gives some info:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Kernel_mode_setting#Forcing_modes_and_EDID

Use Google to find more information.

Monitor manufacturers should publish the "EDID" data in the support section of their websites, just like the motherboard bios files!

You could check here to see if they have a correct EDID for your monitor:
