That's the native resolution and looks very good. This is one of those
new displays in 16/9 ratio, used for video playing. As well as 1400x1050
is the native resolution for the other box which has a SXVGA unit.
All resolutions are stolen from those detected and used under 2.4.
The old kernel starts directly in the high resolution mode.
BTW, I'm using the same resoltion under X which also appears as the best
one for font and textures rendering.
