Ok. I just encountered it while trying to figure out how the video controller was fitting together.

 I guess we could do something like, run at 130 MHz. Then we get
 640x480 - divide by 5.2 (count to 5, every fifth time count to 6?)
 800x600 - divide by 3.25 (count to 3, every fourth time count to 4?)
 1024x768 - divide by 2

That's interesting, but it wouldn't leave you with a 50/50 duty cycle.
 This could be a problem for the DVI transmitters, which are DDR.

I bet the screen doesn't like it either that pixels aren't coming in at a constant rate, which is what I meant with 'odd'. I just don't know how else to do division and get somewhat accurate new clocks.

 Correcting the clock like that all the time is bound to give odd
 display results. So I don't know how to do it, but a divider sounds
 imho impossible.

I'm going to get in touch with Howard and find out how he got it to work.

Ok, great. :)
