I had already checked before Tomazzi posted, I was just reinforcing their point for our obstreperous OP.

Ah yes - somehow I have mislooked this sentence (probably i was just too tired) - but anyway It's one of very few cases when the Arch wiki is not correct - You can't extract the EDID data from windows drivers.DeabianDieHard wrote:On arch wiki, it said this line: Extracting an existing one is in most cases easier, e.g. if your monitor works fine under Windows you might have luck extracting the EDID from the corresponding driver. This line is the reason why I made such a long post.. In the hope that someone would help me but the power user above is telling me that I am spamming.
I have checked the raw EDID data reported by Monitor Asset Manager, which the OP posted on pastebin: indeed, the native resoulution for the first monitor is reported as 2560x1600, and moreover, all the checksums are correct.DeabianDieHard wrote:I dual boot Windows and Linux and bother Operating Systems perfectly recognized this monitor as LG 19 up until last month when suddenly the resolutions reverted back to 1024x768 (in both OS(s) ofc). On Windows I suddenly had/and still have resolutions up to 2560x1600. Not kidding, check this https://prnt.sc/tzautl. Since the option 1366x768 was still available on Windows, I selected that and Windows never had any issues thereafter. But on Linux, the solution was hacky and ended up with a weird resolution 1368x768 instead of 1366x6768 no matter how hard I tried. Heck, Linux , unlike Windows just didn't have resolutions more than 1024x768 showing up in option so I had to manually add the custom mode and then activate. The result is some weird font issues (not related to RGB, hinting or DPI I swear).
I ran this Monitor Asset Manager tool and it shows all sorts of impossible resolutions (for tis 720p monitor) and six random ABC xxxxxx models instead of LG19XXX. I have pasted all the output here: https://pastebin.com/N6dQVVTK
