For whatever reason,
the persistent overlay does not work for me.
I can get to runlevel 3 with or without nomodeset.
With nomodeset,
telinit 5
brings me to 640x480 .
Without nomodeset, it fails:
the oh no screen rears its ugly head.
Is there something I can do at runlevel 3
to get a mode other than 640x480 ?
Is there something that will change xrandr's
idea of the screen size?
