i think LCD doesn't need to follow the 1940's crt standards
of retrace and interlace or not

you should be able to read/write into video memory and not care
what the crt gun is doing in today's lcd
	- it should all be autoselect based on 1280x1024 or 1024x768
	that you feed the X server  ( NOT the modelines )

- or maybe todays LCD does still follow some of yesterdays slowness
	- some people can see the lcd flicker... other's cant
	(lcd doesnt flicker ... it's just the 60hz light and imagination)
