Nice set of patches! I think the above change is nice too, but I can see an
issue: The VESA settings file effectively becomes the "boot time" screen
mode, not the one and only mode for all workspaces in case of VESA anymore.
Even though the app_server does not support that yet, it is planned to be
able to have individual screen modes per workspace like BeOS had. Even the
VESA driver could now switch modes on workspace switches. Since Haiku will
always start in the first workspace, the VESA settings file should therefor
reflect the mode of the first workspace only. The screen preflet may be
used to setup the resolution for another workspace, it is even the default
at the moment. Could you incorporate that in your patch?
Best regards,
