Nvidia driver & NV driver seem to read the edid just fine. Also on other distros things are fine...but when I run get-edid under Feisty I get this:

root@desktop:~# get-edid
get-edid: get-edid version 1.4.1

The EDID data should not be trusted as the VBE call failed
EDID claims 255 more blocks left
EDID blocks left is wrong.
Your EDID is probably invalid.
