I tried with following kernel parameters:
aty128fb
aty128fb:640x480-154
aty128fb:800x600-124
aty128fb:832x624-120
aty128fb:1024x768-99
aty128fb:1056x792-96
aty128fb:1280x1024-75
aty128fb:1600x1200-64
with and without frequency (theses are taken from macosx monitor
configuration panel)
but there are strange things, for example with 1280x1024-75, messages
log gives:
Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 80x30
should be 160x64?
