Hmm, this shouldn't happen - this resolution is just a catch all value to
make it choose any other present - if this one runs through, there were no
resolutions retruned by server - s.th. that should never happen since
actually X IS running in some mode and this one should be returned at the
very least ..

I'll write a doc ,hope I get to it on Sunday night ...

I've been told that DGA is quite an ugly thing per se and it's X driver
side implementation is often very bad and differs among the individual
drivers ...
