Without the empty lines, Sphinx renders the list as part of the running
text.

@@ -11,11 +11,13 @@ Today, with the advent of Kernel Mode Setting, a graphics board is
either correctly working because all components follow the standards -
or the computer is unusable, because the screen remains dark after
booting or it displays the wrong area. Cases when this happens are:
+
- The graphics board does not recognize the monitor.
- The graphics board is unable to detect any EDID data.
- The graphics board incorrectly forwards EDID data to the driver.
- The monitor sends no or bogus EDID data.
- A KVM sends its own EDID data instead of querying the connected monitor.

Adding the kernel parameter "nomodeset" helps in most cases, but causes
restrictions later on.

This document describes actions that an admin can do, rather than
interfaces available to driver developers, so admin-guide seems to
be a more appropriate place for it.

The EDID files are not really documentation.

When both the documentation and the data files lived in
Documentation/EDID, this wasn't necessary, but both have
been moved to other directories in the meantime.
