Does Meego have /etc/sysconfig/videobios? I just discovered it on openSUSE
11.4. It contains:
## Path:        System/Hardware/Graphicscard
## Description: Additional options for graphics cards
## Type:        yesno
## Default:     no
#
# Should the Intel(R) video BIOS be patched to let the X Server run with
# resolutions unknown to the BIOS? Warning, this is potentially dangerous,
# read the documentation in /usr/share/doc/packages/915resolution.
#
VIDEOBIOS_PATCH="no"

## Type:        string
## Default:
#
# The options passed to 915resolution, usually 3 numbers:
# the video mode to patch, X and Y resolution.
#
VIDEOBIOS_PARAMETERS=""

Note /usr/share/doc/packages/915resolution on the i845G system where I found
that file does not exist.
