To acquire the EDID, start nvidia-settings. To force NVIDIA to use DFP, store a copy of the EDID somewhere in the filesystem so that X can parse the file instead of reading EDID from the TV/DFP.

This can be a problem when using a DVI connected TV as the main display, and X is started while the TV is turned off or otherwise disconnected. The X server falls back to CRT-0 if no monitor is automatically detected. See systemd-boot#Loader configuration for details.įor rEFInd, add to esp/EFI/refind/nf and /etc/refind.d/nf (latter file is optional but recommended): use_graphics_for linuxĪ small caveat is that this will hide the kernel parameters from being shown during boot.

įor systemd-boot, set console-mode in esp/EFI/loader/nf. Transitioning from nouveau may cause your startup terminal to display at a lower resolution.įor GRUB, see GRUB/Tips and tricks#Setting the framebuffer resolution for details.
