Where am I, and what
It seems some recent Dell machines have the amount of video memory
available set to 1MB by default. The desktop machines allow you to
set this in the BIOS, but the laptops don't seem to allow you to
adjust this. Christian Zietz has a hack for Linux that convinces
the BIOS to let you use more memory
