[Bug 290156] Re: "Display out of range" after upgrade to Intrepid

[Bryce Harrington]

(II) intel(0): Using fuzzy aspect match for initial modes
(II) intel(0): Output VGA using initial mode 2048x1536

It looks like it's not finding an exact match between your video card's
resolution/refresh rates, and what your monitor can do, so it's doing a
fuzzy match, which results in a resolution (2048x1536) that's out of
range for the monitor.  Silly thing.

For now, I think you can get around this by ssh'ing into the box and
using xrandr to temporarily set a different resolution (e.g. xrandr
--output VGA --mode 1024x768).  That should enable you to boot up.  Then
use the Screen Resolution tool to select a resolution to use
persistently.

If you can also attach the output of `get-edid | parse-edid` with this
monitor attached, I can forward this bug upstream so we can hopefully
get a permanent fix.
