Comment (by ttcoder):

 I'm back in Haiku with a new drive after my HDD troubles, and went
 directly to Alpha3... But I'm being punished for it as there are
 regressions since 41384: VESA mode now plays "hard to get", and in native
 nVidia mode I'm now locked out of even 800x600 (even hacking the driver
 does not work any more, using either the exact same binary build as
 before, which I had backed up, or rebuilding my hack from source!)

 Investigating since yesterday evening.. First thought there had been a
 commit to trunk just before 42211 that changed the behavior of the
 app_server and/or graphics drivers, but didn't find such a change.. Now
 searching for a Plan B...
