But you still do that !
Your switch puts stuff in /options which OpenBIOS then picks up to
construct the final list that it puts in the driver node.

I mean remove it from the driver and put it in OpenBIOS instead.

We can make it so. That or we can add code to OpenB

Add the ability to add resolutions from the command-line. This patch
works by
looking for a property called 'resolutions' in the options node of
OpenBIOS.
If it is found all the resolutions are parsed and loaded.
Example command-line:
-prom-env resolutions=512x342,640x480,800x600,1024x600,12
16 matches
