This post didn't garner a response. A couple of years later,
I have the same question. Is anyone running Plan 9 native
at 1920x1080 with an LCD monitor? What video card are you
using? What tweaks were necessary to get it to work?
The Nvidia card I use with OpenBSD crashes Plan 9 when I
attempt xga above 640x480x8. With cinap's realemu I'm able
to run at 800x600x32, but the card's VESA bios doesn't report
any available modes above 800x600. Some other cards I had
sitting around yielded higher resolutions under realemu (VMware
even reports 1920x1080 as a valid mode under VESA), but I
haven't yet hit upon the right combination to drive my LCD
monitor at 1920x1080.
