[OpenIndiana-discuss] Nvidia K2200 and 4K monitor?

Hi guys,

So, I've got the mentioned graphics card in my workstation.

Does anyone know how to get it to work with a 4K monitor?

I've tried using the nvidia-driver that is present in OI202004, 340.108 
and also the newest, 450.66.

Using nvidia-settings, it's not possible to choose a higher resolution 
than 1920x1080.

Looking at Xorg.0.log, the following seems odd:

See the 165MHz line? That's not correct, because if I do edid-decode on 
the edid from the monitor, I get:

So, EDID says that it can do max 600MHZ _and_ 3840x2160 at 60Hz...

Has anyone else seen this?

The hardware works as it's supposed to. If I run linux and use the 
nouveau driver, I can just set the resolution to 3840x2160 without issues.

Any help/suggestions is much appreciated.
