In a recent commit, some flashrom functions have been renamed. I have updated the patch accordingly.

wget -O- http://boeglin.org/static/benq/0001-Add ... ocol.patch | patch -p1
Make sure in console (terminal) you past right (full) URL
Wront URL is "http://boeglin.org/static/benq/0001-Add ... ocol.patch"
Right (full) URL is "http://boeglin.org/static/benq/0001-Add ... ocol.patch"

Just delete flashrom folder via "explorer" and start again from step: "svn co svn://flashrom.org/flashrom/trunk flashrom" and right URL.

But where to save XL2411Z_V2_20131209_8B72.BIN? (on pc). Do I have to rename /copy it? I don't understand ANYTHING :roll:
Maybe someone can do it on TeamViewer for me?
And what/where is burn-in mode, single strobing? :o
XL2411Z V1.

Edit: I can't even install TeamViewer because of an error.
Edit#2:

sudo i2cdetect -l

i2c-0 i2c Radeon i2c bit bus 0x90 I2C adapter
i2c-1 i2c Radeon i2c bit bus 0x91 I2C adapter
i2c-2 i2c Radeon i2c bit bus 0x92 I2C adapter
i2c-3 i2c Radeon i2c bit bus 0x93 I2C adapter

i2c-9 i2c Radeon aux bus DP-auxch I2C adapter

Which one is vga? If sudo icdetect 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 I see only -- -- -- -- --.

8 with connected iiyama monitor via vga:

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f

60: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
70: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

With disconnected only -- --

9 with and without connected monitor:

70: 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77

Is it /dev/i2c-8 ??

sudo i2cdump -r 0-127 8 0x50 (with connected iiyama):

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f 0123456789abcdef

So I have to do same, but with i2c-8?

Replace 1 with 8 like this? Is 0x50 correct?
Do I have to download something (this patch) or everything do in terminal? I have done "multiverse" things from Bishi's post, page 5.
Standby mode is when the monitor is turned off or when it is turned on with orange led and disabled in system?

All this looks really complicated and i dont want to mess up my monitor :( Is there any easy way to do this without hardware? :D

No. But You can study it without updating monitor. You will understand this and You will be ready to flash.

The main instruction site doesn't work anymore :\

So basically it's...

1. Get ubuntu live on CD / USB stick
2. Paste in a few commands
3. Profit ?
