It does work in cirrus mode for 1024x768. I was under the impression
that it was all the cirrus driver would support. However, the std-vga
mode supports vga 799 and 798 in the console. (1600x1200:24bpp and
1600x1200:16bpp respectively)

The X driver seem forever confused saying there is no available video memory.

Thanks a lot for the help.
