Kernel team,
One of the outstanding bugs we have from Maverick is bug #660604, basically we have no EDID display support. The bug is currently marked low and I would like to suggest it should be raised in priority and best case added for the next release.
The impact of this bug is for those that don't have LCDs which are able to display 1280x720 is basically an unusable graphical environment with any of our graphical seeds such as ALIP, netbook-efl.
Now you might say, hey Tom, you can work around this, and sure one can if you want to go through the process to redo the kernel command line options which is a little less than optimal. I think if we're asking people to enter by hand display resolutions and refresh rates unlike other platforms such as intel then I think we've gone the wrong way.
Regards, Tom
