I've tested the read-edid from the PPA (read-edid_2.0.0-0ubuntu1~tj~ppa1j_i386.deb) and it seems to work fine. I noticed a difference on STDERR from get-edid though:

$ diff get-edid-1.4.err get-edid-2.0.err1c1
< get-edid: get-edid version 1.4.1

I don't know if this is a problem or not. This is a Thinkpad X61 Tablet running Jaunty.

The STDOUT of get-edid is identical in both versions, and the output of parse-edid given this EDID information is also identical.
