#15714: Don't filter out low resolution video modes as they are used for gaming
-------------------------------------+------------------------------
Reporter: mmu_man | Owner: (none)
Type: bug | Status: new

Platform: All |
-------------------------------------+------------------------------
The VESA code in the bootloader filters out resolutions lower than 640
pixels width. While they aren't really usable for Haiku itself, some
emulators like BeMAME can make use of them when going full-screen.
cf. https://git.haiku-
os.org/haiku/tree/src/system/boot/platform/bios_ia32/video.cpp#n502
Should we just remove this limitation or add a kernel setting to do it?
