[Bug 530216] Re: KMS does not allow the user to pre-select a resolution

[Andy Whitcroft]

Seems there is a mechanism.  The frambuffer mode selection interface
applies to the DRM connectors.  This means that you can sepecify a mode
per output as below on the kernel command line:

    video=<output>:<mode>

Where output its the name of the output as per xrandr, say VGA1 or LVDS,
and the mode is say 1024x768.  The mode may be pretty complex:

      <xres>x<yres>[M][R][-<bpp>][@<refresh>][i][m][eDd]
