#7946 assigned bug

Don't use extra EDID resolution when it's 640x480 — at Version 1

Description (last modified by axeld)

Older monitors obviously don't use the "additional video mode" to define their native/best/preferred resolution. Instead, you'll obviously often find something like 640x480 there. See #4625 for an example syslog.

This could be detected, and a better mode be chosen if EDID allows it.

I filed this under the app_server, but this also affects the boot loader.
