Fresh Scale install console getting spammed with "freenas kernel: EDID block 0 is all zeroes"

Anyone got any idea what this is and why it’s happening?

I had this issue on TrueNAS 23.10 - I filed a bug report, but it was closed with the Bug Clerk stating

This does not appear to be a TrueNAS issue, however, TrueNAS 24.10 should have a newer kernel and potentially solve this problem."

I also started a thread about this in the old forum.

I was able to stop the log spam and the related CPU spikes with the following.

sudo midclt call system.advanced.update '{"kernel_extra_options": "i915.disable_display=1"}'

I tried that code and it didn’t work for me. I did read the link you posted and disabling the IGPU seems to have fixed it. Thanks.
