Correct edid entry in edid data but it is not selectable

Manjaro Stable Latest with KDE Wayland.
I have an Acer CB382CUR ultrawide curved monitor which allows 75Hz at its native resolution of 3840x1600. Connecting my Dell 9310 (Intel Iris Xe) via USB-C and Displayport Alt Mode only allows setting the external monitor to 60Hz. Using a Macbook M4 this works with 75Hz with the same cable.

In Manjaro, when running the following little script to get the edid entries:

for f in `find /sys/devices -name 'edid'`; do echo "";echo $f;sudo cat $f| edid-decode;done 

I get this output:

/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card1/card1-DP-4/edid
EDID of 'stdin' was empty.

EDID of 'stdin' was empty.

As you can see the built-in laptop screen is the first entry at card1-eDP-1. All good with that. The external monitor is on card1-DP-3 and has two edid blocks. Manjaro or the Intel driver respectively only seems to see the first block as it contains the 60Hz setting only (it also provides a 30Hz setting for the native resolution).

However, the second block (CTA-861 Extension Block) contains the correct 75Hz setting. DTD 4 to be precise. How can I make Manjaro use this setting? The issue is there with X as well and also in Win11. Neither does it matter if I use the i915 driver or the new xe driver.

I’m a bit at a loss with this, so I’m posting here as Manjaro is my main distro.

I’m facing an annoying bug that persists across laptops (*1), across distros with different 6.x kernels (*2), across desktop environments (*3) and both, X and Wayland when using USB-C to USB-C Displayport Alt Mode with exactly 75Hz. This refresh rate is the monitor’s native maximum refresh rate and it just isn’t available in any distro, only ever 60Hz.
(Using HDMI to HDMI or USB-C to full DP 75Hz is available, so the bug is limited to DP Alt Mode over USB-C. Also, DP Alt Mode at 75Hz works on Win11 which is also installed on the Asus laptop.)

Any other monitor that has higher refresh rates works just fine across the board with the same cable and DP Alt Mode.

This makes me pretty confident that this is a kernel bug deep down (maybe in edid parsing?) and I’d like to report it. But kernel bug reporting is quite a mess having been to Reporting bugs — The Linux Kernel documentation. Which subsystem do I pick for this issue and how to I report it then? However, the main obstacle seems to be that I can’t test that on the most up-to-date kernel version which seems to be hard requirement for bugs to be taken seriously. You guys will have insights. Thank you!

(*1) tested with an Asus Zenbook with Intel and Intel ARC, Dell Inspiron with Intel and Intel Xe and Acer Swift Go with AMD
(*2) tested Ubuntu LTS and Manjaro Stable
(*3) tested Gnome and KDE Plasma 6

I can provide more details if needed, but this is not a Manjaro-only issue so I thought I’d ask for clearer instructions first.

The fact that other monitors work fine would first lead me to suspect that there is a bug in that monitor’s EDID rather than the kernel. Have you checked that?

Install the v4l-utils package for edid-decode if required. With the monitor connected via DP Alt Mode find the correct /sys/class/drm/YOUR-DEVICE-AND-PORT/edid device and then dump it with

edid-decode < /sys/class/drm/YOUR-DEVICE-AND-PORT/edid

Is the 75Hz mode correctly listed there?

So you want the details, that’s fine. I’ve collected all of this already.

As I said, the monitor works at 75Hz with Win11 or MacOS on the very same cable. So I don’t see how it could be the monitor.

I can post the edid tomorrow. It’s all in there, though.

Here’s the decoded edid using DP Alt over USB-C (75Hz not working, maximum available is 75Hz)

The monitor in question is this one 37.5" Acer CB382CUR - Specifications . The native resolution is 3840x1600 (24:10) at 75Hz.

I’d appreciate it a lot if someone finds an issue in the edid that’s not working properly
or
how I can install the latest kernel, recreate the issue and file a kernel bug report which seems to be the only way to file a valid bug there.

Giving this a push. Thank you!

Please see Forum Rules:

As you are experiencing these difficulties across a number of things, logic would dictate that your issue may have little to do with any of them.

Perhaps focus instead on the common denominator – your monitor(s); your cable(s) – hardware.

@MrLavender mentioned;

This seems plausible (to me), given your description.

A reminder that Manjaro forum is user-centric; meaning that dumping your EDID output, and sitting back impatiently with your arms crossed, possibly won’t achieve a great deal.

You might be better served contacting the monitor manufacturer. My opinion is that it’s unlikely to be Manjaro-related, especially given the scope outlined in the first post.


I note that you have ongoing issues with that monitor, as evidenced by your topic created in May this year which, incidentally has also received no response. Edit:- Both topics have now been merged.

I believe you’re very likely barking up the wrong tree, with thinking the issue is anything other than with the monitor concerned.


This should help with the first part of your question;


However, with the second part you may be on your own, to a great extent.


As evidenced by the general lack of response, there is likely not enough information provided for others to offer much assistance.

Certainly, asking others to identify possible contributors to an unsubstantiated bug across multiple devices, kernels, distributions, desktop environments, and display/window managers is unlikely to bear fruit.

I can only suggest you continue with your own research to hopefully reach a resolution.

Regards.


Anecdotal:-

It’s commonly known that a wrong cable can manifest in unexpected issues; a DP <=> DP cable can produce better results than a DP <=> HDMI or DP <=> USB-C cable (or adapter), for example.

Of course, we can only work within the limitations of hardware we have to work with. Sometimes the right cable might not be practical. :man_shrugging:


The two topics have been merged.

There is a way to modify an edid file and force to load it: Kernel mode setting - ArchWiki. Take a look here: How to override the EDID data of a monitor under Linux | foosel.net

Yes, I tried that, but the edid file is not the issue as the correct settings are included.

I will reply yo soundofthunder tomorrow.
