Does anyone know where i can search for the LEN code for the T60 LTD141EN9B LCD. Also is get-edid the only way under Linux to read the EISA EDID data off the screen?

i'm looking to extract the icm file for the LCD but need the LEN code first.

Thanks that one didn't show up in my search, not much help unfortunately. Don't really want to have to put XP on the T60 just to extract the icm file. Pity the LCD is so old no datasheets are around, they might have the code.

Found the Solution for Linux

Check the Xorg.0.log file in ~/.local/share/Xorg and grep for LEN.

My monitor is ID'd as LEN4022.

The LTD141EN9B EDID-code is in this thread (2nd code already...):

Deciphering it will give you what you need.

Already been through that thread, was the first the forum search threw up. I just didn't know it contained the info. From subsequently reading the EDID section on wikipedia the LEN values are encoded in bytes 10-11 hence 4022. Just need to find a working Linux EDID utility, although it could be the T60 implementation is half baked as it was the first machine with EDID.
