Interesting. I've got 14.04 installed. It appears the issue I'm having<br>
may be slightly different. Through our Denon receiver it does not open<br>
up the HDMI connection, however connected directly to the TV it does.<br>
I normally have an NVidia GT220 connected, and know that the Denon<br>
passes along it's own EDID, and I've captured the TV's EDID and "force<br>
fed" it to the NVidia driver to get it to work "best".<br>
<br>
I'm now wondering if the issue is I need to take this captured EDID<br>
bin and figure out how to "force" the Intel driver to use it and<br>
ignore the EDID the Denon passes along?<br>
<br>
In case anyone has done such a thing and can supply some help? thanks!<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>My receiver is a <span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">Denon AVR-2112 and I had similar problems with 14.04, but 15.04 seems to work out of the box.</span></div><div><span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">-Jerry</span></div></div></div></div>
