Some simple instructions on getting this going under Fedora Core.

It's important to note that the invocation of this program needs to be done
at least once, at boot, to install the correct values in the video BIOS's RAM
copy.  Executing 915resolution requires root privs.

Note that the intel xorg drivers are supposed to deal with displaying to
non-bios modes "real soon now"; hence this setup technique.

1.  Read README.txt, in this directory...  Figure out the proper invocation of
    the binary for your hardware.
2.  Edit /etc/rc.local.  Include as a line in that file a call to
    915resolution; a la: 

        /usr/sbin/915resolution ....

    Where .... is the proper parameters to pass 915resolution.
