Hacking the LG Monitor's EDID

preface: Posting these online since it sounds like these notes are somewhat interesting based on a few folks I've shared with. These are semi-rough notes that I basically wrote for myself in case I ever needed to revisit this fix, so keep that in mind.

I recently bought an LG ULTRAGEAR monitor secondhand off of a coworker. I really love it and it's been great so far, but I ran into some minor issues with it in Linux. It works great on both Mac and Windows, but on Linux it displays just a black panel until I use the second monitor to go in and reduce the refresh rate down to 60 Hz.

This has worked decent so far but there's some issues:

  • It doesn't work while linux is booting up. The motherboards boot sequence is visible just fine, but as soon as control is handed over to Linux and I'd normally see a splash screen while I'm waiting for my login window, I see nothing.
  • It doesn't work on the login screen. This would be fine if login consistently worked on my second screen, but I need to manually switch

curl-based HTTP mirroring script

curl-based HTTP mirroring script

This is a script that creatively uses the curl CLI to download an HTTP resource (colloquially "file"); It saves time & bandwidth whenever possible, but not at the expense of correctness.

  • Compares ETags to make sure that an unchanged resource is not transfered again, but a changed resource always is.
  • Requests a CE-coded (a.k.a. compressed, e.g. gzipped) representation of the resource, falling back to the "regular" one.
  • Supports continuation, using conditional requests, but in contrast to the -C - curl flag works with CE-coded responses, and falls back to a "full body" request.

People asked me: Why not use wget for this?
