It started as cgfourteen.c,v 1.15 1999/03/24, but I've done quite a bit
to it since then.  That's why I offered to make both my driver and the
base I started with available, in the hope that what I did could help
you make your 4.0 driver work.

That's one of the things I did, yes.

I don't know either.  But here's my guess: they are defaults in case
the OBP does not provide a size - and the OBP does provide a size in
all non-1152x900 cases.  Checking, I find that my driver passes 1152
and 900 to fb_setsize_obp, for what that may be worth.
