I always seem to have 0 length files in /sys for edid.
That why I use the xrandr output.
# edid-decode < /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-LVDS-1/edid

EDID block does NOT conform to EDID 1.4!
Missing name descriptor
Missing monitor ranges
That's the problem - bad EDID.
FYI EDID Structure 1.4 recame a standard in 2006.
