There is a VGA driver that was recently made that works with the Mac OS. This driver reports all the resolutions the emulated computer can handle. To make the driver as maintenance free as possible we have decided to move the reported list of resolutions to OpenBIOS. A control panel in the Mac OS list all of these resolutions. The user can then select one and use it.
Ah! So this has nothing to do with OpenBIOS or the VGA driver under it, it's a means of passing information from the outside entity into MacOS.
Does MacOS demand the list be a property of the VGA display node? If so, does it want it as a string or as an array of integers?
Actually the Mac OS gets all its information from the VGA driver. It would be the VGA driver that would read the list in OpenBIOS. Currently the VGA driver needs the list to an array of integers.
