Jun 17 11:34:26 my_server kernel: EDID has corrupt header
I’m running 5.14.0-570.21.1.el9_6.x86_64 kernel in Rocky 9.6.
Any help or solution ideas are welcome.
Do you have any symptoms in usability of your computer and graphic output? Unless you are having other issues this may be a harmless message. You need to look at the message log lines ahead of this one to get context of what drivers are loading to know where to look. My guess is that it is some graphics driver or firmware that is being loaded, but not necessarily being used by the system.
I’m not seeing this in my rocky server log though graphic drivers are not being loaded since I’m accessing remotely over ssh.

Beyond that the machine seems to be operating normally.
Seems a google search for that error gives plenty of results Google Search and various solutions to stop it from appearing - the posts from the proxmox forums for example.
But unless you are experiencing any problems with the way your machine is behaving, you can probably just leave it and ignore it. I’m pretty sure I’ve seen this on some of my systems, including under Debian, and didn’t do anything and all my systems worked fine.
