Description FreeDesktop Bugzilla Database Corruption Fix User 2005-07-15 05:21:30 UTC 
The NoDDC option is not listed in the man pages as late as release 6.8.2
(http://www.x.org/X11R6.8.2/doc/radeon.4.html). It is indirectly referenced in
the IgnoreEDID section.

I had to use NoDDC to get the Radeon driver to ignore the DDC mode list from my
monitor. IgnoreEDID "on", DDCMode "off" and PanelSize did not appear to override
the monitor's mode list.

My monitor is a Nokia 445Pro, which has run fine at 1800x1440 for several years
under Xorg release 6.7 (and xfree before that) inspite of its internal mode list.

There is no section in the radeon(4x) man page describing the "NoDDC" option.

Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys.  Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.

NoDDC is not a driver option.
