Hi

In Linux it is possible to load an EDID externally. Coreboot can
currently not do this. Do you think it is worth implementing this
feature?

An EDID file is a bit to big (128 bytes) to fit in nvram so it would have to go in cbfs.
Where in the code do you think this setting should be implemented:
NB code, read_edid in drivers, decode_edid in lib, somewhere else?
How do you think this feature should be turned on: nvram option or build
option?

Thank you for your comments
