Nouveau fails to drive the LVDS screen of an Acer Extensa 5635G laptop. This seems to be due to the laptop having a corrupt EDID.

The latest nvidia beta drivers seem to have a quirk for it, and there's a corrected EDID available here: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=2167144&postcount=13
