Well that definately changed the behavior. The builtin LCD longer comes on
*at all* even when I do Ctrl-Alt-F1. Fortunately I'm a good blind typer.
But the hsync problem remains. It is using the default:
(WW) RADEON(0): Monitor0: Using default hsync range of 28.00-33.00kHz
(WW) RADEON(0): Monitor0: using default vrefresh range of 43.00-72.00Hz
(II) RADEON(0): Clock range: 12.00 to 350.00 MHz
(II) RADEON(0): Not using mode "1280x1024" (hsync out of range)
But my Monitor section clearly specifies a wider range. It's being
overidden somewhere. I need a double-secret-override!

Incedentally, I noticed if I try Depth 24 I get a 'static allocation
failed' message. If I change that to 16 I don't and DRI kicks in. The
end result is no different however.

A program should be written to model the concepts of the task it
performs rather than the physical world or a process because this
maximizes the potential for it to be applied to tasks that are
conceptually similar and, more important, to tasks that have not
yet been conceived.
