VGA problems

I just purchased a Lilliput 809GL-80NP/C/T 8" monitor.
Works great with a S-video input.

In the VGA mode,
vga_text_demo works OK
vga_hires_text_demo, vga_512x384_bitmap_demo gives an error "OVER RANGE"

Any ideas why?

    The problem with the hires VGA drivers is that they output a 1024x768 image. Your Lilliput monitor is probably 640x480, which is what the vga_text driver outputs. So, you are limited to 480-line or less signalling.
