This was my first time trying it.

I'm trying it that way now.  I've set a few other resolutions in there
to test but the one I posted has been working ok ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).

How can I tell which ones will work in advance?  Someone posted a
command to display some setting from /proc:

   cat /proc/fb0/modes

That doesn't show the one I've been using and I know it works so that
bunch must not be very complete.

But first lets see if the basic stuff works...
