Now, I'm utterly confused ... I've been running X in 1024x768 for many
months on my Q610 (internal video, 17" SVGA with a generic Mac-video <->
SVGA adapter)  with a home-built kernel, but no source changes atall ?

In other words, what does the grf_iv.c mod and madhatter patch buy you
that you don't already have ??

Of course, I'm waiting for colour support for internal video, just as you :-)
