The screen width physical size is still 262mm instead of something like 524mm.
I assume this is the monitor lying to you. Is the 324mm ok? In that case, you'll have to specify the dimension of the screen manually in xorg.conf
(II) RADEONHD(0): Max H-Image Size [cm]: horiz.: 52 vert.: 32
Hm, that looks ok... I'm not doing anything with the EDID data, this is base RandR's behavior. Still:
(II) RADEONHD(0): Supported additional Video Mode: (II) RADEONHD(0): clock: 156.0 MHz Image Size: 262 x 324 mm
Ah, there it gets it from. So the monitor is lying in its additional
video mode image size, and that one has precedence over the general info
block...
Until we have a *real* monitor-specific quirk database, I'm sorry but
you have to configure that manually. I wouldn't dare to design a logic
that sometimes takes the one value, sometimes the other. This is prone
to fail.
