We don't need that stinkin' XF86Config because our X server basically
figures out by itself in what resolution it should run.

The flip side is, of course, you can't change the resolution or color
depth once you boot into NetBSD (and only supported color depth is
1!).

There's a server floating around that supports 8-bit pseudocolor mode,
but you'll need a special device driver built into kernel to run it.
