I assume there's a monitor actually connected (that supports EDID)? Did this work with older kernels (if so which)?

Please upload a copy of your VBIOS (/sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/vbios.rom)

OK, had finally change to test this display (Samsung SyncMaster 2043NW) with another machine (Lenovo X60s laptop) which had the same issue:

It is fairly old machine and before I installed Fedora on that it was virus-infested Windows XP which apparently supplies better default EDID data in case something goes wrong...

Supplying the rom for completeness :)
