Unfortunately, with "noRandr" it is broken even worser: the Xorg simply

apparently, there is some issue with rejected panel modes:

I am attaching the Xorg log for this case.

It looks like the mode that your system tries to set up requires 88.8MHz
display bandwidth, however the panel seems to report that it's max is
88MHz (interpreted as 88.0MHz I assume) meaning that your monitor is
telling X that the mode that it gave to X is out-of-range. It looks like
a truncation problem to me... I wonder where this is occurring.


Nope.

This is because modevalidation now tries to find a single common mode
on both outputs, and thus both monitors.

The native mode of the first has too high a dotclock for the external
monitor.

So this is not the issue here.

Could they use a custom ModeLine with a proper dotclock with that panel
then?
About validating an 88750kHz mode against an 88000kHz monitor (the
panel): this is no problem as there is a 1% tolerance on this value:

88750kHz < 88880kHz

So... due to the tolerance value of 1%, the above combination should or
should not be working?
