Exactly what happened was appended to the previous message.

The Oct 20 kernel worked as advertised with dt when I set it to 1-bit 
mode (silly me, that's probably even in the docs).  Sorry about that.

However, this morning's kernel is still giving bogus messages about no 
internal video, even with this change to the video mode.  The second 
set of numbers changed slightly, to the following:

I've triple checked this, there are no typos.

A couple more notes:

1) I have a DaynaPort II/e.  Nothing changes if I remove the board, so I 
left it installed since I need the network under MacOS.

2) The display card has a full complement of memory on it.  I don't know 
if they shipped that way, or not (but it does work fine with the Oct 20 
kernel).
