Well, not intentionally at least. Typically, right after posting this
it struck me: I had "vga=792" on my kernel command line as a leftover
since forever... That's what screwed up.
I guess you need to add /proc/cmdline to your reportbug script now :-)
Something should also probably be done to warn lusers like myself of
this problem when auto-enabling KMS. Looking for VESA modes on the
command line maybe?
Happy now. Just need to find out how I enable the nice native
resolution from boot. I guess it must be documented somewhere...
