I'm sure I rebooted using a 1600x1200 vgasize in the selected section
of plan9.ini .
In case it matters: I copied the monitor info from linux xvidtune.
Is there any debugging output that I could provide that would help
to diagnose this?
(running at 1280x1024x8 is already _much_ better than not running at all,
 so not running at 1600x1200 is not much of a problem at all,
 apart from the curious minds who want to know why it doesn't work)

Axel.
