That means that normally my video card and monitor works fine with
1280x1024 and 85Hz (Skolelinux installer automatic detects this) .

I have test some TFT screens or CRTs and boards with various Intel
graphic chips (855,815) and a ATI Radeon 9200 and a Matrox G400 with
the kubunto live CD. All works fine in high resolution.
If you have a monitor without DDC channel like my sony laptop a menu
comes up to select a resolution.

I think autodetection is a good idea, but you also need some config
files. Examples:
- Classroom with big and small Monitors to give all the same resolution.
- Selection of X11 or terminal mode.
- Fix hardware problems: 14 Inch monitor who tell us he can 1280x1024 at
100Hz and so on.
