Comment (by vidrep):
I tested this on my own PC today using hrev50501, but it does not appear
to work.
On-board graphics on my PC is currently unsupported Intel HD4500.
In order to use VESA I must manually select fail safe video mode and 1600
x 1200 32 bit resolution on every boot.
This step is not necessary on Alpha 3 (tested today). Haiku will
automatically select the VESA driver and screen resolution when the GPU is
not supported by the Intel driver.
