Hi.
It seems the atyfb framebuffer driver in the kernel totally ignores the 
OBP output-device variable setting.
When i boot into the latest iso (1.4_rc4-2) i just get the out-of-sync 
from the monitor unless i pass a video=atyfb:xres:1024,yres:768 setting 
to silo.
Not everybody has the mandatory 1152x864 monitor from sun :)
It would be a good thing to get it into the install documentation.
For the record, it's on a ultra5.
Best regards.
