Well...

FWIW, I have played a bit with information I had in the logs when EDID
worked.

I have created a ModLine for 1080p (frequencies confirmed from the TV's
manual) and set it hard in stone.

It appears to work reliably.

You will have all the logs and con files, working, and not working, auto
EDID and manual ModLine for your rfeference at this URL:
