Comment (by pulkomandy):
Ok, so the driver is failing to read the DDC info from your display panel
to select the right resolution. I believe that also happens with older
versions of Haiku.
However, with the changes I made, the driver will set a default mode list
and select a "random" mode from it whereas it used the mode set by VESA
before.
With the letterboxing I introduced, there is now a mixup when you try to
select a mode bigger than your screen. Without DDC/EDID info, we can't
know the actual screen size, so it's hard to tell when this will happen.
