jasper@quatermass:~/> setdisplay -h
Usage:  setvideo -x xres -y yres [-m monitorfile] [-d device] [-c bitsperpixel]
or      setvideo -x xres -y yres [-m monitorfile] [-d device] [-p pixelrate] [-c bitsperpixel]
or      setvideo -x xres -y yres [-m monitorfile] [-d device] [-f framerate] [-c bitsperpixel]
or      setvideo [-h]
Default device:         /dev/vidcvideo0
Default monitorfile:    /etc/monitor.conf
