I don´t understand this. What monitors got to do with this? My patch is kind
of kludge that enables you use higher pixel clock for text console. It
doesn´t change anything for those who are happy about current situation.
This patch will only affect on Picasso IV.

For those who would like use higher resolution text console it makes possible 
even
then when resolution pixel clock is over 29Mhz. Of cource you need a monitor
that support resolution that you have selected. So would you care to
explain what you mean that "will not work for all monitors", it´s up to you 
which
resolution you select. There are already plenty of resolutions that doesn´t
work with your monitor and neither with mine.

Happy New Year!
