Created attachment 61378
  --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=61378
nouveau version, dmesg (Arch, Fedora 17 Beta)

Hi.

I am getting EDID checksum errors with my monitor connected to VGA via E-Port
Replicator; also the monitor gets wrong resolution (1024x768 instead of
1680x1050) or stays blank. Infrequently the screen shows garbage or the system
crashes.

Hardware: Dell Latitude E6400, E-Port Replicator PR01X/02X, Samsung SyncMaster
2243EW (1680x1050), dual-head setup (DP-1 and VGA-1 connected), nVidia Quadro
NVS 160M

OS: Arch running Gnome 3.4.1 with all updates (2012-05-10) and
xf86-video-nouveau (0.0.16_git20120210-1), Fedora 17 Beta LiveUSB and
xorg-x11-drv-nouveau.x86_64 1:0.0.16-34.20110720gitb806e3f.fc17

The setup worked without error some Arch Linux updates ago or with Fedora 16
LiveUSB. Also I happened to have a similar setup at another office with Samsung
SyncMaster 203B (1400x1050), also no errors.

Attachment is the dmesg output of Arch Linux and Fedora 17.

It's probably already fixed by:

Kernel 3.4.2 made it from testing to core in Arch Linux this weekend. The EDID
checksum errors are gone, monitor is detected and resolution is fine. Thanks.
