## NVIDIA ##
#
# In Precise, -nvidia does not support writable EDID via KMS.
# However, it does provide a CustomEDID option in xorg.conf which
# servces essentially the same purpose. To use it, you need
# a section like the following in your xorg.conf. (I believe the
# nvidia-config GUI tool has buttons to add this for you.)
#
#Section "Device"
# Identifier "Device0"
# Driver "nvidia" #Choose the driver used for this monitor
# Option "UseEDID" "FALSE"
# Option "CustomEDID" "DFP-1:/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/edid.bin"
#EndSection
# TODO: Need a corresponding edid read functionality. (Or can we
# just use the get-edid script from the read-edid package?)
def usage():
return """xedid <command> [edid-sources]
Commands:
list [edid-src] - List edids available on the system
show [edid-src] - Display decoded edid information
save [edid-src] - Copy active EDIDs to binary *.edid files
raw [edid-src] - Prints the EDID hex codes
install <edid> - Adds given edid file to kernel firmware dir
uninstall <edid> - Removes named edid file from firmware dir
activate <edid> - Makes kernel use given edid from firmware dir
Notes:
EDID sources (edid-src) can be Xorg.0.log files or binary or hex
edid files. EDID binaries (edid) must be binary files in a valid
EDID data format.
The kernel's EDID firmware directory can have multiple edids
installed, but only one activated at a time. The activated EDID is
passed to the kernel command line.

DESCRIPTION = """
This utility allows you to install a new EDID into the kernel firmware
directory to override the one read from the monitor. This can be useful
if the monitor's EDID is faulty or if a KVM or other adapter is causing
the EDID to not be read properly.
Also, it provides routines to examine EDID contents, convert them to and
from various formats, and manipulate them in other ways.
