Possible. These are the values he sent me from a debugging enabled fbdevhw:
xfree init mode: 100000 1600 1616 1624 1640 1200 1216 1224 1240
fbdev init mode: 10000 1600 16 8 16 1200 16 8 16 32 8:8:8
FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO: Invalid argument
Anything obviously off? dog, could you also post the output of fbset for the
mode?
