Hmm - doesn't work.  I get a No Clock for this mode error (or something 
similar) - after reading further, it seems that this is something known, 
and I can't (yet) find the solution in google. 

This is an EPIA CLE266 that requires the openchrome.org driver, which I 
have installed.  I have had to resort to using the TV out atm, and its 
crap!!

I guess I need to do some further investigations.

Cheers,

Richie
