	Your theory is probably right. I have a schwack of 1600x1100
3/60's. The quick fix is /dev/bwtwo0. Check the device. Major 27 Minor 0 is
the low res, Major 27 Minor 1 is hi res :

crw-rw-rw-   1 root     staff     27,   0 Dec 27  1991 /dev/bwtwo0-

	This one currently has a hi-res monitor. I've left the 
normal one sitting there as /dev/bwtwo0- so I don't forget when 
I have to slap a regular monitor on it.

	Pah! defeats the pupose.  Color is a fuzzy as a PC monitor.  I
haven't found a $3000 21 inch monitor yet that'll beat my nice old
mono Sun3 head for eye-searing-cut-through-48-hours-awake
crispness. Color is for web wanking.  mono is for writing code.
Gimme a Mono Sun 3 and an expresso machine any day :-)   

	Cheers,
