[snip question about how to detect graphics resolution]
Thanks, xresprobe seems to be what I'm after.
This may help: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/force-xorg-to-use-specific-monitor-resolution-disable-ddc-670874/
although it is about a Radeon card, and these things may vary across brands.
X uses ddc to detect what resolution is possible with the monitor (as
it should). Howecer this seems to fail in a lot of cases, and if you
add "option "NoDDC"" to the section about your graphics card it should
not use the detected (wrong) values.
