Aye, but if you know enough to change resolutions, you probably also
know enough to accurately determine the amount of video ram that you've
got.  I don't want to think about the IIci/si/etc that might rearrange
how much memory that they're using when they change video modes (since
they use DRAM and NetBSD uses the unused space at boot-time).  There are
a couple of options here, but no relatively simple and ideal one that I
can think of.
