Don't worry. I know what I'm doing. I have quite good knowledge of Vesa since 
my demo coding days. In Vesa 3 you can 
usually do a lot more than you wrote. And I'm not changing the boot code for 
resolutions, in fact I'm reimplementing 
and removing a todo in:
http://dev.haiku-os.org/browser/haiku/trunk/src/add-ons/accelerants/common/create_display_modes.cpp#L257

As well as passing in EDI for Vesa, now that the above is fixed:
http://dev.haiku-os.org/browser/haiku/trunk/src/add-ons/accelerants/vesa/mode.cpp#L76

From my scan of the involved code, and my knowledge of Vesa (and some vm86) I 
don't see that I'm on the wrong track.

Btw, I'll email my current patch when I get home Michael.
