This is odd - the EDID is indeed too short. Could you attach all logs, gathered with our Linux Support Tool?

Regards,
Michal

Thanks,

We can reproduce the issue with your original monitor. We should be able to fix it.
As for the other attempt, there are no signs of loading evdi kernel module at all in dmesg?

Regards,
Michal

You are right Michal.

I probably had unloaded it for being able to start X server.

That's good news. The two displays are from LG, and they are very similar, despite their sizes, maybe the problem is related.

I'm sending the files again. Please let me know if you need anything else.

Best regards.

I got the same error about EDID. Attached my edid information. Please note that the external monitor was working before I switched from ubuntu 16.04 to 16.10.
Now my pc crashes if I plug the docking station in. I have the latest driver installed

Update: so far we've narrowed down the problem to be specific to Intel+NVIDIA systems using nouveau, running Ubuntu 16.10.

Cheers,
Michal
