Presumably this problem arises because the fbdev doesn't know about this 
restriction, so doesn't set the virtual resolution of 832x600 that it 
needs to when asked for 800x600.

The display actually works fine, so I suspect the register reference is 
overly pessimistic here. Wouldn't be the first time.
