+ Alternatively you can use i2cdump. In Trisquel, this is in the package i2c-tools.
+ $ sudo modprobe i2c-dev
+ $ sudo i2cdump -y 5 0x50
+ $ sudo rmmod i2c-dev
+ You'll see the panel name in the output (from the EDID dump). +

If neither of these options work (or they are unavailable), physically removing the LCD panel is an option. Usually, there will be information printed on the back. -- cgit v1.2.3-2-g168b
