Intel 915G with Dell 2005FPW TFT no bigger resolution then 1280x1024

[Chris Burghart]

The same is true for Dell 2001FP monitors.  I have to set:

   Option "DDC" "no"

on the device driving the monitor in order to run mine at
its native 1600x1200 resolution. :-p  Thankfully, no special
modeline is needed, though.
