Hrm.  This tends to mean that you've got a system that neither returns
correct results from a DDC probe of the monitor, nor can it do 800x600
correctly.  The workaround is to do "resolution=1024x768" on the command
line.

Just FWIW, if this is a mac and you've got a kvm (or something else
impeding DDC), there's a workaround for this built into rhpxl as of
Wednesday the 11th of January.  Unfortunately that's 0.10-1, not 0.9-1
which is what's in Test2.

If it's on some other platform, we're really going to need more details.
